Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
Because I'm one of the organizer of Mail art event in Trinidad & Tobago (first one ever made!) and I found myself in this wonderful world that was unknown to me which I want to be part off. Also I love snail mail, I'm artist. This is a great combination!

  • Patricio - The Celestial Scribe

    This is a friendly welcome to The Eternal Network from a friendly mail artist living in a friendly country. What seems to be a perfect start here is mail-art exchange. I would like to be the other side on this very beginning with you at IUOMA when you decide is the right time to do it. If so, your envelope should read as follows:

    Patricio Duprat

    Av. Paraná, 1489 apto. 1004

    Curitiba-PR

    825210-000

    Brazil

    I look forward to see your piece arriving on the mail.  I will do my homework after receiving yours.  That’s a celestial promise form The Celestial Scribe

    zombie literature to send out into the mail art world to be
    passed around to 12 people then returned, and compiled

    Thank you, la Koki, I did not have photos of these two portraits and now I am happy to see that they arrived for your project. Maybe the photos were very large pixels for IUOMA and could not be uploaded?

    Hi, La

    The artist Jean-Francois Aillet invites you to collect your sample of sand from a moraine, from next to a waterfall or beside a river, along the shore of a lake or a stream, in a desert or on the border of an ocean. One should not, however, send him sand from a construction site. You are asked to document your collection of the material with a photo, taken as you are pouring the sand into a container. For an example, kindly visit his home page at www.aillet.com . English : http://www.aillet.com/traductions/anglais.htm

    See you to take part in this international project.
