Call for Mail Art: Weird (existing) Animals! Platypus, Tapir, Okapi, Echidna, Mole, Axolotl are some of my favourite animals. They have in common that they exist irl and that they are uncommon. Which animal do you think odd? Send your image of an unusual (existing, no fantasy) animal. All media are welcomed, preferable postcard size (10x15 cms), maximum A4 (20x30 cms). No jury, no fee, no return. All weird existing animals will be published in this ongoing virtual exhibition.

Nicole Eippers (23)
Nicole Eippers created this wonderful Caterpillars collage. The largest one is the Saddleback Caterpillar, also known as Acharia stimulea. He/she lives in the USA, but sometimes they travel on ornamental plants to Europe. Which does not make us, Europeans, happy, because this Caterpillar has hairs and horns which secrete an irritating and painful venom.
Nicole added an article on the back, about a Belgian family who discovered this weird animal on their recently bought ornamental plant. So be aware!
And see, also Nicole's famous Flying Pig accompanied this great piece of mail art. Thank you very much, merci beaucoup, Nicole!
