Mail Art Meets Mixed Media
This is an interactive piece where all the postcards used were sent to be by other people over two months. In November 2011 I put out a call for postcards to make the first piece for 2012. I had a great response and nearly 100 people sent me postcards. Many even sent more than one. I incorporated postcards from all the individuals who sent them. Quite a few artists sent me printed postcards with their work, and those were included as well. Then there was the handful of amazing, handmade postcards I received from other artists. I didn't want to cut the handmade ones up, but I wanted to use them. For those cards I made color copies and added them to the piece.
