The Remade Quiz: unidentified remade objects wanted!
Have you seen a URO (Unidentified Remade Object) recently?
We are collecting pictures of interesting, beautiful and remarkable “remade” products… Items that used to be one thing and are now something else!
The more unrecognisable they are… the better! Because we’re putting together a Remade Quiz – fun for all ages at summer events like the Lambeth Country Show (16-17 July) and the Urban Green Fair (4 September).
For each picture, the challenge is to guess “What it used to be” and “What it is now”.
If you attended Brixton Green’s Family Fun Day back in May at Dexter’s Playground, the pictures below might look familiar. I won’t give away the answers here as these will continue to be part of the quiz (so the captions only tell you who made them and where – please note lots of them are local!)…
If you have any potential additions to the gallery, please get in touch – email remadeinbrixton@googlemail.com with your photos of Unidentified Remade Objects! (Remember to identify them in the email so we’ll know what the answers are for the quiz – and please credit the makers too.)
Looking forward to discovering more of the inventive and intriguing remade creations out there…
