I visited the Addison Gallery at Philips Academy down the street and saw the tail end of the Eva Hesse and Sol Lewitt exhibit. I was really struck by Eva’s work (I’ve seen Sol’s work already at Mass MOCA). There was one series of pieces that were constructed out of sent post cards that inspired this little post card art project.
Here’s how it will work:
I will be sending letters to friends, Patreon patrons, and anyone else interested in helping.
In the letter will be one or more copies of the 4 post cards above. They will be pre-stamped to make sure they get back home.
On the other side are instructions on what to do – basically this; on the addressed side of the post card , write a message, color the image, draw over it, send it back blank, or anything in between.
When I get them in the mail, I will reunite the 4 cards (sent to different people) into a single image, scan, and send to everyone.
Let me know by email if you’re interested, whether you want 1 or more cards, or if you have questions. It’ll be fun, it’s art, and heck maybe it’ll end up in a book or on someone’s wall.
