An open call for entry was made for artists (predominantly printmakers) to participate in this global postal art project.
The call for entry resulted in 240 participants signing up within 3 weeks.
The project was an intense, logistical task to curate, especially as it conflicted with the worlds Christmas mail. Postcards were lost, participants moved house and disappeared from email contact and many-many replacement cards were sent out.
Each individual postcard went to 3 participants within 4 months. The resulting artwork and exhibition can be viewed on this website.
A big thank you to all participants!
