Event Description

Mail Art Call:

I am building Musiamo Cent (Museum 100). If you want to be a building block for the first museum in a land that does not yet exist but to which I hold the blueprint, send a piece of mail art. The inaugural collection for Musiamo Cent will be curated over 100 days as a fictional parallel to documenta 15. Submissions received from now will be entered with in-situ text into the museum collection on the 5Ft Storyhouse blog from 31 Jan - 10 May 2021 (100 days).

No returns. All welcome. Thank you. Sala hantle.

Mailing address is on Mel Anie's profile.

Comment by Mel Anie on February 9, 2021 at 1:41pm: More BIGGERWONGY today - thank you, Cascadia Artpost. It just gets bigger!

Comment by Mel Anie on February 6, 2021 at 4:19pm: A BIGGERWONGY slip came in today from Belgium! The first one that has ever been received and it is perfect. Oh, oh, oh!!!

Comment by Mel Anie on February 2, 2021 at 9:52pm: The link works! At least something has escaped some of the biggerwongy. I am very pleased to have contributed to your vocabulary, Martha. I am afraid mine is diminishing; indeed, it is becoming quite gutter-al. Oh, biggerwongy.

Comment by Mail Art Martha on February 2, 2021 at 7:49pm: The link works Mel Anie. I shall use biggerwongy, a timely addition to my vocabulary. I enjoy new words, especially if they are those that mean what you want it to mean at the time. Much is completely biggerwongy in our world.

Comment by Mel Anie on February 2, 2021 at 1:27pm: Musiamo Cent is open. All submissions welcome if I receive them by 10 May 2021. No theme BUT there is also a specific call for slips that show usage of the word 'BIGGERWONGY'.

Comment by Mel Anie on January 20, 2021 at 9:40am: Dumela, clever Martha, thank you and I am delighted to hear this. I will welcome you warmly. And all in good time, all in good time. Sala hantle, Mel Anie.

Comment by Mail Art Martha on January 20, 2021 at 5:08am: Dumela Mel Anie! super idea. Of course I will attend, but it will take me a little time. I am very busy with the Shopping Trolley Gallery. As soon as I send this batch of replies there is a slowdown of the mail and then I do the creative stuff.

Comment by Mel Anie on January 18, 2021 at 11:48am: Oh good, Katerina, thank you; maybe it will get here this year! I'm sending you a cat (not for this event)!

Haha, I would love to include heARTS!?

I am full of exclamations today!!!

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on January 18, 2021 at 9:44am: Woof...coming soon to your 5-story house, Mel Anie...

perhaps for this event?

(though you may include heARTs, too :-)

Comment by Mel Anie on January 18, 2021 at 8:37am: Thanks, Bradford and James, I'll repost it with a link that works.

James, thanks for your interest. The address is on my IUOMA page not on my website.
