Mail Art

Postcards made for Mail Art project - Decentralized Networker Congress 2012.  An event that will expand their global network of artists even further.  http://www.cazart.org.uk/content/autonomous-zone


The work has remained with the alphabet theme.   They are collage pieces, with the layering of coloured paper and the addition of pencil and pen.  The process of making was purely organic.  Having fun with form, colour and line. 
 I found a few bright envelopes to post them in; I didn't want them to be completely battered by the postal service....
...and off they go to the USA, Italy and Cornwall 
Bon Voyage...

I have finally got the swatches stitched together.  A metallic border made up of different gold’s and silvers was added around the piece, to hint on a gold frame.  However, once the piece was up I realised a lot more needs to be done to it.  So I have decided to put it away for a bit and revisit it with fresh eyes.  Stay tuned....
