Besides collecting mail art and rubber stamps etc. we collect all manner of other things. The truth is we find it hard to throw anything away so eventually these piles of detritus become little collections of things. They say if you have just two things then it's become "a collection" . Focusing on just one of our interests - matchbox labels or to give it its proper name "phillumenism". Every years they have a wonderful Phillumenists Meet Up" (not sure if thats the right name they give…

Sending this ATC to someone who returned some A&P's (her addition included) with an apology that she didn't have anyone to pass them along to :(
I suggested she check out IUOMA for contacts, as well as included a couple address stickers a couple of you sent me to share. Hopefully she joins us on here and gains some collaborators!…

I've been really enjoying the slow focus that carving stamps requires. This is my current collection of handmade stamps soon to continue growing! Preparing for a long correspondence art session I'm about to begin today, I wanted to lay out my stamps and supplies and reflect on my progress so far…

Somehow people always think that if a group of artists work together that then there must automatically be some kind of organisation that coordinates it all. Well, in mail art there are many groups working together. These groups themselves also work together, but there is NO organisation that arranges all the things that go on in the mail art network. The I.U.O.M.A. is the Union that mail artists can become a member of. The Union has no rules. Everybody who is active in mail art and hears about the Union can become a member just by saying so.
In 1988 the idea of the IUOMA was born. I invented this name and made forms for people to become a member of this (fictive) union. About 300 mail artists reacted in a year, and official membership cards were made, even a official Union Magazine was published. Anybody who was a member of the Union could also claim a special function within the Union.
Even today, people still join the Union. And somehow it gives power, to say that YOU are a member of the International Union too. The Main address of the Union is at the TAM-address, P.O.Box 1055, 4801 BB - Breda - Netherlands. It is just the center for archiving all the things that are going on. But I am not in control of the Union. I just invented it. And to make it official, I made myself General-President of this Union. Sure was impressive when I travelled to the USSR in 1991 and went to visit some friends there who were also members of this Union........
Today online on Ning there are thousands of members. On December 2nd 2018 the 5000th member joined in.
