Katerina Nikoltsou (19)



I love the way Katerina Nikoltsou re-uses envelopes: by simply using the reverse side!



Several animals are to be seen: a Dog, an Elephant, Greek Owls, Human Beings on the stamps, and on the inside Butterflies.



I am not sure if the content was meant for me or for Erni. Anyway, the message is clear (I must confess I hadn't take the time to do so in the past year): we should send mail art - dada or whatever kind of art - to Erni.



Good idea, and thank you very much, Katerina!

This mail art was created by Micu. So sweet! This tiny bird and rabbit (or hare) have arrived safe and sound, to wish me - and all of us/you Happy Holidays!



Thank you very much, Micu!

Micu from Hungary has send me a beautiful Fish, which is a surprisingly piece of recycling art.
Cardboard and plastics are common materials to recycle into mail art. But this is the very first time that I see medicine packaging turned into art!

Depending on the direction from which the light comes and the amount of light, this fish is changing colours, exact as happens when the fish is swimming in the sea:







Thank you very much, Micu!

For the ones who would like to create mail art (not from pill packagings specificly), and who don't know where to send to: check Micu's great project Mail a Smile.

For the ones who are interested in the recycling art creating process and/or need more ideas: check her recent blog on this subject! In case you don't use pills and don't know anyone who uses them, there are several other sources, like bubblegum packaging, etcetera.

These butterflies once belonged to a note book cover. Thanks to Eva they turned into mail objects and flew from Spain to this Mail Art project!
Funny that the colours and brightness - which in their note book life always were the same - now can change, according to the background.





And the Spanish Correos supplied an apt stamp.

Thanks a lot, moltes gràcies, Eva!
