Weird Existing Animals

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.

Alan Brignull is a great print maker. I am happy to have received this print of the Hedgehog.

It came in this envelope, bottom right you can see a referral to the Adanaland Hedge Fund:

Alan added interesting postage stamps of Royals, along with some other animals: Lions (why do Lions on coats of arms always pull out their tongues?!?), a Griffin, Deer and Horses.

Inside the envelope also this interesting experiment with printing coins:

Thank you very much, Alan!

Claudia Schramm

This amazing 'animal' has been sent by Claudia Schramm from Germany.
Weird animal... Is it a Rendeer, is it an Elk? And how come that this creature makes us think of the famous Chinese artist Weiwei Ai?
(More about Weiwei here, news about his detention here, and possibilities to start mail art projects here.)

Claudia has an interesting mail art project: "Schickt mir Euer Geweih" = "Send me your horns". More about / from Claudia Schramm you can read on her website: Schrammiroquai.

Vielen Dank, Claudia!
