ARROWGAMÉ (pronounced "arrow-gah-may") follows a grand tradition of games of battle, and achieves a zen-like balance of aesthetics and destruction. Two forces stand opposed, seated, with an index card between them. Playing is poetry. Each time the card is creased, hell breaks loose on the lined battlefield. Arrows against arrows. It is gruesome to watch, and yet I cannot look away.
