MailArt: Book Of DeaD

Information

I'm an admirer of the book of the dead, so I think a book of the same style is needed for MAILART.

The idea came from recycling a lot of paper that was around the house and this project came about

Creating mail art inspired by the "Book of the DeaD" can be a fascinating and creative endeavor.

The "Book of the DeaD" is an ancient Egyptian funerary text that contains spells and instructions for the deceased's journey through the afterlife.

Art Type: You can draw it, create from zero, copy, paste, make, cut, paint print, stamp it....
Material: You can use all materials.
Deadline: It's when i can't put more works inside the book
As usual: No fee / No Jury / No Return / No sell
Show: All the works that i received will be uploaded to this website, in Iouma site, and my social media networks. All the works received will be placed in the book (if possible) and in the end it will be a joint work.

Artist: All information send in the art will be displayed in the show (Artist name, Email, Webpage, social media.....)
