Cuan Miles's Mail Art from S.Africa

I've said it before, I'm sure--Cuan Miles is a freakin' genius. Spend some time looking at these, the faces, especially. I know I'm pretty effusive in praise sometimes, but my lord, these just blow me away. The top right one is called "Across a Crowded Room." Multi-layered, multi-faced, such emotion in this piece. Then the little teabag one bottom left. I've examined it under a magnifying glass and it's just as strange seen that way. The poem can be read if you hold it up to a mirror--I expect Cuan wrote it because there's no attribution -- the last line is "another glimpse of the Madman across the Water." Wow! Oh, yea, and the words on the big black card say "True meaning of Fate. 'This wasn't supposed to happen.'" Wow again.
