REAL post on REAL walls

Inspired by my REAL wall, this group is dedicated to the art of displaying your mailart on walls. If you've  received mailart and have stuck it on a wall, then add your picture of your wall here. Descriptions and references to the artists of course of course would be appreciated.See More

Profile Information

Mail-Artist since:
2009
My Website (without http://):
http://www.myrealwall.com
Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
I love writing and receiving letters and have recently closed my facebook account in order to concentrate on letter writing. These days, instead of posting on my facebook wall, I get people to write me by post and then I post everything on my REAL wall, and photograph it for upload to www.myrealwall.com

When I found out about the mail-art movement I realised that the wall, which itself is my work of art, was perfectly suited for incorporating other peoples art and decided that I would get involved in this community.

I am working on my own mail-art as well as actively involved in displaying any that I receive and I endeavour to write back to anyone who sends me anything.

Bring it on!
