"Things I Forgot"

this fantastic collage kind of reminds me of the paintings of Neo Rauch (similar forms and palette). 

and the envelope it arrived in calls to mind the dream sequence in Hitchcock's  "Spellbound" -- look! Dali himself showed up to check it out ];-)…

a panel of 'red rage' stamps!

and in the same envelope, a CAT [Crevicist Aptitude Test] (from Nonlocal Variable) --

as well as an excerpt from the summer edition of The Eastlake News --…

now this envelope, from the Blue Bunny Club, was very gratifying to open, as it contained --

several copies of the booklet "Birds of a Feather", a three-way collaboration (Mindaugas, CMB and me) - what a lovely surprise!

[sideways shout-out to Katerina, who recommended i send altered pages from Mindaugas to CMB - what a functional…

finally posting these intriguing squares, which arrived last month...

i wonder if they are cut-up se(le)ctions from a large image, perhaps a map of another green world?

trying to stay zen about it all...

thanks S.

this vibrant centaur arrives from Portugal -

and the flipside features the 'chamber pot of Damocles' (if i understand correctly) - 

also, digging the portuguese postage -…

where design meets dasein. it's always great to receive such warm sentiments along with the carefully constructed paper assemblages; it must be sunny all the time where Mikel lives...

wowza - another jam packed envelope that raises lots of questions - 

have i been canceled? cat(flux)fished? and have i seen this woman? 

(she looks pretty blissed out; one has to wonder exactly what kind of fungi she's been working with...)

but wait -- there's more!…

mutually assured destruction/the vicious cycle of violence -

on a repurposed paper plate.

merci Dean; hope you are safe/well.
