Cryptic Burger Intro

[Cryptic Burger]

We have been producing anti-corporate / parody art illustrations for the past 2 years. We produced stickers of some of the pieces from our first series - "Sugar Cereal Psych-O's", mocking popular marketing mascots from our youth in the USA (1970's-1980's). We began sending these out to zinesters around the world to trade. In the process we were introduced to the world of mail art.

We recently learned of IUOMA from a fellow Japan based creator GIANNI SIMONE. After receiving some of our stickers, he sent us a  several-years-old copy of his zine KAIRAN 17. This zine included many fascinating articles on the history of mail art.

We would love to share our art and network with artists here. We will send a set of our stickers for you to use as you wish - maybe incorporate them into new art?

Please reach out anytime!
