a mail art project between Venice & the UK |
returned work for the Lost & Found postcard project |
shrine to Venice....made from found materials |
...the back of the shrine |
attracting found materials and documenting the journey |
the theme of lost & found became clear very quickly, buildings, places, ideas and objects seemed to shape-shift here....and everywhere 'found things' appeared suggesting work: the postcards reminded me of my love of cutouts and collage and the intervention project developed....
the shrine to Venice developed after a friend visited me for three days...producing work was not the objective, following my nose, being materials-led, and exploring without pressure to produce 'good' results freed me to be in this magical place where there is hardly any earth, where the murmur of human voices, the movement of water and the rhythm of footfall predominate....no motor cars!
