Mail Received - Cindy Moser

A thick and padded envelope contained a sweet surprise: an handmake notebook by Cindy Moser, made of brown paper bags for me "to play with" as she says in her note. A small key attached to a string echoing the message "Art is the Key" works…

Mail Received - Torma Cauli

Among all mail artists I have exchanged mail with, Torma is the mail artist closest to me physically. Budapest is only a few hours away from Vienna, by car, train or boat down the Danube, although as our countries have been separated by the Iron Curtain for a long time it also still seems a world apart.

There is something very endearing about Torma's…

Mail Received - Mr. Colori

Museum of Instant Images

Out of the blue, or rather out of the clear blue sky I received an envelope including a digital collage from Mr. Colori, who - perhaps unexpectedly lives not in Italy but in the Netherlands. On the left the card I recognize a…

Mail Received - Janine Weiss

A surreal and humorous card came from Janine Weiss, crazy girly stuff, dresses, long eye lashes, hair, flowers and bling. I love how the card seems to be thrown together on a whim, in a burst of energy, also because some elements are not glued but stapled on. This adds to the three dimensional feel of the card, if you bend it slightly pieces seem to move. Ah,…

Mail Received - Taidgh Lynch

Taidgh sent me a wonderfully rich and colourful envelope with silly creatures, spilling over to an extra card. Taidgh also included some of his poems and a lovely handwritten note - which deserves a more personal response than a blog post.…

Mail Received - Arac

This card from Arac is hilarious, definitely "unlike anything on television", an bold encouragement to "resist conformity" and to chart one's own weird path. Ah, is this an old hippie at heart speaking here? More wisdom and damn…

Mail Received - Fleur Helsingor

A sweet collage on thick paper, with a tree and an African Daisy. I think these may be photos taken by Fleur herself. Very often her collages show images against a bright blue sky, almost like a signature style. Lovely. Thank you, Fleur!

Mail Received - Mail Art Martha

We did have a little snow again yesterday, so winter is not over yet, and there is time to post this card from Mail Art Martha. Martha knows that I used to live in London, and I know she has been to Vienna, so we have exchanged references. The red Royal Mail boxes are classic British design and part of the London cityscape just like the red telephone boxes…
