ABSTRACT

What are the Blobs? They are neither male nor female, young or old, slave nor free! They are open to interpretation. Each character could be you, your partner, your best friend or a personal enemy. What is true for you might be completely the opposite for someone else. Blobs are a way to discuss issues in a deep, meaningful way and yet they can be understood by adults and children alike. You might look at a sheet and say that you feel like one Blob today, but tomorrow be a completely different Blob. You might find that a friend sees you in a completely opposite way! You could use each Blob Picture in a groupwork situation to stimulate discussion about how a team feels about itself.
