"Snail Mail Snail defies harsh conditions
(even coffee grounds) to deliver mail."

Great mail art project for coffee lovers and recyclists:
mail art on a used coffee filter (size 4).
Sent to Ed Hanssen in the Netherlands.

In december 2009 ontdekte Heleen de Vaan het fenomeen 'Mail Art'. Inmiddels is de aloude kunststroming aan haar repertoire toegevoegd. Op deze weblog een greep uit haar Mail Art; ontvangen Mail Art vind je op de andere blogs. In December 2009 Heleen de Vaan discovered Mail Art. Currently this already long time existing art school has been added to her works. On this weblog you can find some of her sent Mail Art. Visit the other blogs (see profile page) to discover some of the received mail art.
Did this one arrive safe and sound? It seems fragile!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI was in doubt whether to send it naked or in a plastic. The previous one I've sent in a plastic package from a regular card (because it sprayed coffeee grounds, so a cover to not disturb other mail senders and receivers). And it arrived safely!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThis one I'm sending in such plastic, too, but I think I'll send the next one naked.
I don't know if there is a limit to how much coffee filters one can send, but I drink a lot of filter coffee as you know :-)
Do you use filters? If not, would you like me to send you some usable used filters so you can participate, too? :-)
I don't use filters, as I use the Italian coffee maker (by the way, I read the inventor of it has recently passed away...). I'm not really interested in participating. But thanks for the offer anyway!
