Always fun to receive a package in the mail... this one came with an intriguing Taiwanese customs form.


And even has art on the back (I'm not sure if the words were torn in transit, or if this is as it was sent).


Amongst other things, William included this cool piece made using a camera-less photographic process called chemigram.

 


With a found poem on the back.

Thanks for all the extra bits, William.

HI, William, thanks for the added info. And glad you're now into creating found poems - they are a lot of fun.

HI, Kat, I agree totally! I love the title, also. Plus the added writing next to certain words.

glad it reached you in one piece. the words were incomplete like that when i put them on. it was a piece from a page that i had taken words from for various collages and that was what was left. the customs form has that brown bit on it since it was the first page from the small tablet of them. i use those forms alot and the post office has been kind enough to give me complete small tablets of them on occasion. i think you and toni have inspired me in the found poem department. :)
