Hi, for IUOMA members, we are the owners of an art gallery in Marseille, France, and organizing a Mail Art exhibit ''not for sale'' from June 3 to 30, 2014. The theme is: "Mermaids in the port, queens of the sea..." We invite you to participate and send an artist's letter. Free technique. On a postcard or any other object of your choice. Illustration, address and stamp on the same page. Deadline for hanging: May 10, 2014. Send a work in mail format as original as possible. Send to: JC SARPI - LE LAB 3 rue Bussy l'indien 13006 Marseille France .We will answer each mail by sending Mail Art. Looking forward to presenting your works. Thank you for giving the information to all the persons who may participate to the project. Look at http://lelab13006.blogspot.fr
I also do textile art - and often get inspiration from the embroiders guild mag. I think your 9makers group is fantastic. Nothing beats the inspiration and motivation that comes from that sort of group. But setting a successful one up is not easy!
I would love to exchange mail art with you - please send me your address if you would like this.

Hi Judith, great. will send out to you tomorrow. My address is
Thanks for posting a picture of my mail art. Another piece is on its way!
I sent the blue piece at the weekend and then a couple of days ago I received a piece from you so I sent another one back. Hopefully you'll get it tomorrow or the day after (I never know how long things take 2nd class).

Your sweetie dress has reduced handsomely and drastically the huge Wirral-Curitiba gap. The bridge looks bright. Now it´s time for this scribe to keep a celestial promise made to yoy few days ago. I´ll keep you posted.

Earthling, this is the last but certainly not the least welcome message to IUOMA you receive. I’m a celestial mail artist living in a heavenly corner of the faraway universe called Republik van Patland. When you joined IUOMA on 24 October I was unable to welcome you on board. At the time I was in a Celestial Journey far beyond the Milky Way. Now, back to planet Earth, I´d love to be the other end when you decide it’s the right time to start trading snail mail art. If this is the case at the time your envelope should read as follows:
The Celestial Scribe
Terrene Embassy
Republik van Patland
Caixa Postal 24827
Curitiba-PR
80510-970
Brazil
I look forward to see a piece of yours in our terrene mailbox. I will do my homework after receiving yours. This is nothing less than a Celestial Promise. I’m Patricio, Celestial Scribe & Republik van Patland Official Envelope Provider.
