I have to confirm that Katerina's suggestion is incorrect. Strange to see two of my cHrOmA sHaPe sHiFtEr images from 2016 rendered in black & white. The whole series appeared in the mail art exhibition at the Karuizawa New Art Museum in the same year and can be detected in the exhibition catalogue. The are close to the floor in the lower left corner. I am also including a detail view.

Ourie's identity continues to be a mystery. I do like his artistic scribbling. I am also adding to examples of his work received in 2020.

Wishing both of you a happy and creative 2025!

but always great mysterious mail art!

These too, i see, are from Helsinki, Finland:

maybe one and the same?

or a known friend and teacher/student?

fellow-artist? Always fun surprises!
