ADD & PASS - The X Files

In the Mail Art activity, there are interesting ideas that are explored, like Mail Art Calls, Collaborative Books, Visual Poetry etc, and we also have the  ADD & PASS, which are created somewhere in the world by a Mail Artist who send by mail one "object", proposing that it be changed or simply Added an Artistic Intervention by another Mail Artist, appealing that the "object" being referred back to an following artist, chosen randomly or not.The original creator Add its Address on the "object" in hopes that later return him, filled with interventions of Mail Artists from different places and countries, giving him a great satisfaction to see the "object" with a new "life".

This group aims to be the dissemination place to the Add and Pass, and a ARCHIVE of it, however, giving preference to " Booklets",becouse it is here that the individuals have their own space to give wings to is imagination and technique.

I received this postcard from Samuel Montalvetti recently. It was made from a piece of a cardboard package. There were also rubber stamps and an artistamp by Antonio Moreno Garrido on the card, so I'm assuming that he made the card originally and sent it to Samuel.

I decided to treat this card as an add and pass, so I added one of my signature flower stickers to the side with the picture, and used my "add and pass" rubber stamp and confetti address sticker on the other. Why not!

I'll be sending it to Massachusetts sometime next week .........
