In the Mail – The Broken Glass Art Project

The first 18 images are in the mail (e- and/or snail-). A good start, but more would be better.  I’m really excited about this project, I’m hoping for a little of the same and a little in the category I like to call “something completely different”.

What do you mean completely different?  I’m looking for some real off the wall approaches to responding to this call for art.  First, since participants are keeping the art (past projects the art was mailed on post cards) the format that I get it in is either a photo, video, or a scan of the art.  So, this frees you up in a number of ways.

You aren’t restricted to a post card sized piece of art.
You aren’t restricted by what’s safe to send in the mail
You aren’t restricted to doing anything on paper or with ink or paint or brushes or any traditional art supplies
You can do what ever can be capture in an image
you could use fire
you could project it on the wall of your town hall and take a picture of it
you could feed it to termites
you could put it in a treasure chest and bury it (taking video of it the whole time)
you could use the paper copy to do stop motion animation
you could make a mobile out of it
you could stick it – well I’ll let you decide

This is going to be fun.  Come join us
