Mail-Art design Premiere

I am a bit proud of myself - but really just a bit ;o) Yesterday I set down and tried to create some mail-art. I took different colored paper, illustrated cards, a pen, various punch and glue - that's what I found on the fly. With this stuff, I designed…

I run through the grass,
bare feet soak.
I'm just like everyone else,
I want to f**k.

Vizma Bruns

I'm very glad that there in IUOMA is such great and optimistic mailartist as she, especially if we speak in common language and we have common origin - latvian.

And now ... some words especially to you, Vizma! : Es jau sen esmu vēlējusies Tev atsūtīt atbildi, bet esmu bijusi šo laiku aizņemta ar studijām, kā arī - esmu ļoti lēns artists.:) Man vajag ilgu laiku, lai izdomātu ko un kā sūtīt konkrētam cilvēkam, jo parasti cenšos pieskaņot kautko attiecīgajai personai un savam…

Received from Dean, Katerina, and Ana, Paris--Cerealism

Any time a woman stands with her hands on her hips while she's talking, well, you know she means business. The buffalo is all ears, I'm sure. Love those stamps, especially the Hermes stamp!

As you can see, this mail art is anything but square. Merci…

Mailart from Lestaret

 

Thank you all the fantastic mailartists!

There is a lot of work that I have received lately, but I have not had time to show them. I will try to catch up.

This is first - little booklet from Mister Lestaret or Christopher Skinner. His fantastic asemic writings and ephemeras has always fascinated me and I'm so lucky that something from him is now in my collection…

When did the IUOMA start

Because I got the question I had to do some digging in the archive, As it turns out I found the starting month back in one of my own publications that I wrote in 1990:

This booklet was published in 1990 to document my first 10 years in Mail-Art. I still have the originals here. In it I wrote about the start of the IUOMA. It turns out to be AUGUST 1988. Later in…

Mail Out - South Africa

I have just mailed off my first contribution to Sheryl Penn's collaborative artists book, 27 x 2 pages. I am not 100% sure of the result. It is hard to imagine what it will look like as part of a book. It would have been easier to make single cards.…

Janine Weiss: Happy Birthday Card

     Janine Weiss send me a very nice birthday card, but my birthday is not until January. But I always say; better early then never. I now sadly see that Janine Weiss has left IUOMA so we may never know why she sent it early.

      It will have to go down in history as one of those unsolved mysteries.  Like Stonehenge, or why spaghetti breaks in 3 pieces when you bend it.…
