Received from Karen Champlin, Art Nation--The Nascent Conspiracy

After regularly receiving Karen's work, it is evident that handmade collage is important to her. The connection to humanity formed through her mail art, through the cardboard, the text, the stamps, the rip of map, hardware and all its irregularities, is a truly a personal treasure. Thanks, Karen!

Comment by Karen Champlin on June 12, 2011 at 10:24pm: I made one of these for Arttower too. The text is from the Life of Oliver Samson. Just something I stumbled upon.

Glad you like it Bifidus. I had fun making it. May make one or two more this Summer! Ya never know. :-)

Comment by De Villo Sloan on June 12, 2011 at 8:29pm: Another nice one by Karen. I'm not sure about the source of the text she uses - maybe it's the same as the crusades piece Erni received - but the church/state conspiracy element works well for me and suggests a narrative beyond the work. Thanks for posting, Bifidus.
