Exquisite Corpse specimen from SUVA Type Foundry

A display typeface whose name and character grid suggest letterforms built from disconnected, collage-like parts inspired by the Surrealist drawing game.

About

Named after the Surrealist parlour game in which participants contribute parts of a composition without seeing what came before, the typeface appears to fragment its letterforms accordingly. The page presents the alphabet as a loose grid arrangement, hinting at a design rooted in discontinuity and chance assembly. Little technical detail is available, but the concept points toward an expressive, art-directed display face unsuited to extended text.

Classification

The typeface appears to be an experimental display design, with letterforms arranged in a grid suggesting unconventional, fragmented or collage-based construction reminiscent of the Surrealist exquisite corpse technique.
