Lately I've been thinking a lot about the japanese aesthetic of wabi-sabi (侘寂). I feel very attracted to its concept. But what is wabi-sabi? What is your point of view on this matter?Continue

Thanks Nancy! I plan to create more this weekend... I"m getting hooked ;-)

And yeah the styles are very different. I will be mailing out your mail art today and even though its minimal (for me) it is nothing like the "united" series... but I love it just the same and hope you enjoy it as well.

Helen, Sandra, and Eduardo: Great works here. I love them, a lot, and the variety of minimal styles never ceases to amaze me.

That's so REAL, Eduardo. Many of us who engage in minimal art have very un-minimal lives. Thanks for sharing that with us.

Dear friends:

My life has been so busy that I'm not having the required time for mail art. Besides my taste in minimal things, my life is not minimal at all. :)

Not counting my job, I've been working in music, theatre and other projects. :D

I have to save more time to send you minimal stuff. :D

Cheers!

Here is a series I created to share with the MINIMAL MAILART group called "united".

Enjoy,

Sandra

I got a beaut from you a while back, Mim ~ Thanks for clarifying here.
Comment by Mim Golub Scalin on September 14, 2011 at 11:12pm
Yes, that's it for me, Nancy. I post here (as well as on the MailArt365 blog,) and then I mail the actual piece to someone.

Hi Sandra, I've only been here two months, but a number of people post photos of their minimal work, as you see below, and I assume they also mail it to others. Upon first joining this group, I picked out someone whose work I admired (Roberto) and asked him in a comment on his profile page if he'd be willing to accept my very first piece of minimal art (it's a challenge for me too!). He was very nice, and we traded mail art. You can send a piece to me if you like, or ask someone else if they'd like to receive it.
