The Black Cloud from Carina Granlund, Finland

Carina had a holiday in the USA and she got this black and white postcard with a mining camp in Nevada on it. And then she took it home, all the way to Finland. She put the postcard under the sewing machine needle and had a cup of coffee while making this ace Mail Art. I have a deep respect for people to know how to operate a sewing machine.

Well... that is the story I think is behind this piece. Thank you, Carina.
