Mail Art's raison d'etre
June 01, 2001 05:20PM
<HTML>Read this the other day and it made me think....
So what is Mail Art's raison d'etre???? And what will be it's end?
Some folks think the internet is mail art's end but I dissagree. Honoria would dissagree to I bet. And Ruud too.
I see the internet as expanding mail art.
But it's raison d'etre? Ummmm, what do you think? For me, as a kid I sent decorated envelopes to pen pals overseas. I painted birds and mermaids and used stickers alot. You should see my letters home to mom from camp. I was a mail artist before I knew what it was. Now I can't imagine not getting something wonderful in the mail box museum each day. I bum out on Sunday or holidays when no mail art comes. I'm already bumming about my future time in the hospital and the recovery time form my impending arm surgery. How will I do mail art with an arm in a sling????
