I Am the Comic Book is a performance promenade comics surrealist story game comics conceptual art piece, instigated by Cecil and supported by an array of incredible artists. They participate in an ‘exquisite corpse game’ where Cecil gives a prompt and the artist creates a three-panel sequence that is made into a temporary tattoo and worn on Cecil’s arm. After the tattoo fades, it’s on to the next ‘chapter’ where Cecil is the book, walking in the world, as the character Maxi walks in their world.
