Hi Karin:

Thank you so much for the postcard and note; also really loved the envelope!! Thanks for sending the flyer for the Ilala Weaver show...their work is beautiful.  Will be returning something soon for you. Mary

Hi Karin,

Brussels under a tropical heat wave, drinking 2 much cold beers and worrying about my cats who are outside now ALL the time. Cats can have sun strokes 2, dear sun god.

I worry less about cat 1 who after all was a stray cat, he knows what to do but cat 2 not!

When it rains for instance cat 1 is hardly wet when he returns, cat 2 is soked!

Small but important differences. Okay all differences are important. Saw images yesterday of South African police forces shooting and killing striking miners. Yaks!

A heat wave suddenly seems minor stuff.

Trying to make postcard collages now, a bit more difficult because of reduced space but I manage. Here are 2:

My parents were new born christians and thought that music was invented by the devil while I believed that the devil had invented my parents ...

Mailing this to Lesley in response to her music collage.

2 is even more funnier: The 6th sense

Hi Karin, I glued your art piece already in an artist notebook I keep for writing texts, poems, reflections, diary and dreams. So your request becomes difficult but I made a scan of notebook page next to printed poem and a photo. Both are beyond.

Thanks Karin,

It goes in 2 directions for me: a work of art can inspire me to a poem, a poem can inspire me to a work of art. I call this «translations» because in a certain way they are translations but never in the literal sense, always metaphorical. The whole LAMUSAR project was and is intended to promote these kind of cross exchanges.
