Marya Dawn

Welcome to the IUOMA Marya. Because there are more IUOMA members coming from the Coursera courses, I started the group:

Still empty, but I hope to have some discussions there too.

Enjoy your stay at the IUOMA platform.

Would love to send you Mail Art. Go to my IUOMA page, use my postal address to send me mail with your return address on it, or use my e-mail address to send you postal address!

Earthling, this is the last but certainly not the least welcome message to IUOMA you receive. I’m a celestial mail artist living in a heavenly corner of the faraway universe called Republik van Patland. When you joined IUOMA on november 30th I was unable to welcome you on board.  At the time I was in a Celestial Journey far beyond the Milky Way. Now, back to planet Earth, I´d love to be the other end if you are still trading mail art. If this is the case at the time your envelope should read as follows:

The Celestial Scribe

Terrene Embassy

Republik van Patland

Caixa Postal 24827

Curitiba-PR

80510-970

Brazil

I look forward to see a piece of yours in our terrene mailbox. I will do my homework after receiving your artwork. This is nothing less than a Celestial Promise. I’m Patricio, Celestial Scribe & Republik van Patland Official Envelope Provider.

Heavens is ready when you are...this celestial slave too.

Ijust received your artwork.  There is no sender address to send something back to you. Would you please......  The huge gap San Rafael-Curitiba is fading.  I can see a handsome bridge under construction on its place.  God save the engineers.  It´s time for this scribe to keep a celestial promise made to you few days ago :-))))))))   

Marya,

I got your great pieces and will get them documented online ASAP! Thanks much. These are really wonderful.

Marya, Thanks soooooo much for your wonderful entries to This is Just Mail Art. See them posted here:

Hi Marya! of course we must be friends, we wear the same hat. Well in this photo it is in my hand not may head

I received mail from you today. I'm new and not active yet so very suprised to get mail. Thank you! Not sure how to play by the rules yet though.  

Got your Mail Art!  Thank you so much Marya, I will send out something soon!! Have a super summer day!! 

Pleasure! You surprised me with your mail (my first Mail-Art!) and I wanted to do something back as inspiring.

Love,

Jennifer

All that love Marya! I was in need of  a  dose so I am very grateful to you, you made my day.

Why are you involved in Mail-Art:

I started making Mail-Art after taking an online art course through Coursera and studying the works of Ray Johnson, Ryosuke Cohen and The Celestial Scribe who, surprisingly, is always ready wen I am. 

Why does one  need a course in Mail Art?

I would have thought a stamp, a piece of Mail Art to send out  and an intended recipient would be enough.

Am i missing out on something more fundamental  about Mail Art?

Thanks Marya.

To me, the history, rome and function of Mail Art in totalitarian régimes is one of the most interesting aspects of this genre. I haven't come across a good explanation of this so far -- is that particular theme covered by/in Coursera?

There are some interesting Mail Art books out there (and some not-so-good ones).

Regards, Val

:-))))))
