So, the Internet still connects me to the outside world, which is very good. It is interesting that one person on the IUOMA site excluded me from his friends and forbade me to write comments to him. My guess is that this is such a manifestation of anti-war sentiment; this Mail Art artist probably implies that I, as a holder of Russian citizenship, am now filled with hatred, marching with guns in hand and all that. In fact, I live in a small room in an apartment building, taking care of my parents and cultivate art.

Unfortunately, I slowed down a lot in April, and only today I can thank the Mail Art artists to send me their work. I received envelopes during the spring from:

Mail Art Martha
Flying Adventures Weesp
Carien van Hest
Vass Tibor – Spanyolnátha
Predrag Petrović
Kiki
Juan Petry
Rebekka Schmidt
Lutz Anders
Jean-Charles Boilevin
Margreet Beemsterboer

I am very grateful to everyone and would like to post pictures of everything that came in the mail soon.

It's sad when people act like that.  No one needs anyone like that in their life on line or off line.

I enjoyed the mail art you sent me, and I've been waiting to send you something.  Are you still not able to receive mail from the US?  If you're not sure I'm willing to give it a try and see if it gets through.
