Gina Ulgen, Norwich, United Kingdom

 Mail Artist, Gina Ulgen, sent two cards in one clear envelope. I didn't realize that until I slide what I thought was one card out of the envelope. What a lovely surprise.

On the reverse of this card, with a map of Virginia, USA, and an extraordinary cyclist, is a note about her getting a new bicycle and her adventure with it.

It's Duck egg blue with a wicker basket. Lovely sounding.

The reverse of this card, a fabulously altered celestial scene, has the addresses, to and from.

The postage stamp was adhered to the outside of the clear envelope. Clever move.

You can see, even in this scan, how precisely she cut the image of the cyclists.

Thanks, Gina, for these terrific entries.

Tofu, San Francisco, California, USA

A prolific Mail Artist, Tofu has sent us a most amazing piece of Mail Art! It's made up of lots of small squares, each topped with circles, all made from a San Francisco map. Amazing!

Thanks, so much Tofu, for sending this for the exhibit.

La Marquesa, Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA

 

This photo/collage entry came from my long-time correspondent, La Marquesa. Turns out she sent it while I was in hospital and it ended up on the bottom of a stack of many cards. I was happy to see and am happy to share it.

Thanks, La M.

La Marquesa, New Mexico, USA

Mercedes entry is a beautiful envelope, mixed media on a map background.  I like that on the reverse, which is equally lovely, there's a tiny notice: envelope is empty. In this example, the envelope IS the art!

Thanks for the entry La  Marquesa.
