Cardboarders projects are about creating things together with a crowd in a playful environment. We use cheap, recyclable materials, turning “nothing” in to something. Our projects include improvised creative games, tinkering, puppetry, lightpainting, animation, live-journalism, character design, costume making, storytelling, street theatre and set-design.

We are a loose group of artists working from the Netherlands, based in animation studio Reanimation.nl.

We see art as an actionsport: participating in the process of making is more important than the endresults. We are very skilled in getting participants enthusiastic and motivated to create things. Destruction of the things made (by using them) is a part of the project!

Our workshops have an atmosphere of absurdity and quirkiness. We cherish the freshness of amateurism! True creation comes from innocent pleasure of working together and a feeling of having nothing to loose.
