I am very pleased to offer these images and will begin with the envelope front and back:

It includes a Dillinger reference to martyrdom, which is macabre and thought provoking, but also a quote from the singer/songwriter Patti Smith.  For those who have not read her autobiography, it is a must read. 

This 11 inch high x 8.5 inch wide piece is, to use a familiar term, "stunning'.  Is it a new form?  Does it mean absolutely nothing?  It operates in between.

Guy Alexander is paired with the religion that killed him.....

This postcard blows my mind.....

This is a waterbug saint "business card"....

And the front and back of a manila shipping tag - all this lets me know that I agree with Meeah, in that the true prophets are artists in this modern world.  The transversality may be an ocular deception, but I doubt it.

I feel like I'm watching one of those split screens with several different shows going on at once. How Meeah's parade of people and ideas fits into one envelope is a feat. Love it all!!

Fabulous stuff--Meeah is multi-faceted and I love how her values are expressed, subtly, pointedly, humorously, you name it (and are shared here in o.o.b.). Great blog, and Patti Smith is fascinating. Glad for the reading tip, Borderline.
