Emotion

my dear friend, i invite you to participate the new mailart project
Emotion in Shanghai, China
more information:http://mailattack.net/project-emotion

Project: Emotion
EMOTIONInvoluntary strikes: Mind and Heart.A lot of things carry
emotional resonance, like paintings, music, poetry, and of course, the human
face.You can express your fleeting or deepest emotions in a way that is not a
self-portrait photograph; texture, color, composition, etc. you can also make it
be a poem, stamp, sketch, drawing, collage or anything that can perfect express
your emotion, Whether it is sadness, happiness, boredom, or something else
completely different, I want to see how you express that feeling. A picture of
your face will be too obvious.we will guess what your emotion is and create
something based on what we think your emotion is and send that to you.You
can send your mailart to the address:Room501, Building83, ShangGang
village7,Changqing road Pudong district, Shanghai, China.

Mail to China arrived

The Mail-Art project in Shanghai, China is going well. My own contribution to the project arrived and was published on the website: http://mailattack.net/archives/285 . It is a colourful collection already. The exhibition is currated by Amo Mao, and I hope more mail-artists will contribute.

Mail from Amo Mao - Shanghai - China

Mail-ARt from Amo Mao in Shanghai, China. The decorated envelope with content arrived without any damage and without any problems. Mail-Art to and from China is a fact. The first projects in China are being prepared, and invitations are sent, also through the IUOMA network. This project is already a success.

So, something changes in the last days. Blogger is accesible in China at the moment. Maybe not all blogs, but this one is. Great to know some changes are taking place while a first Mail-Art project is taking place inside China.

Mail-Art from China

There was a nice surprise in the P.O. Box this new year. A card from Shanghai - China. Seems my mail-art project "where are the Chinese Mail-Artists" is succesful. I am now in contact with a few already and with a first mail-art project in China, there is a new change ahead!

E-mail from Amo Mao - Shanghai - China

i have got ur mailart today (2010.12.16)and that proves mailart can be sent to China, i did a small test here and made a mini group to know if people interested, and find that there are a lot. so my idea of hold a mailart show in Shanghai China can be started. and then i applyed a website for mailart in China, i am very interested in mailart, hope that more and more mailartist will participate in.

Mail to Amo Mao - Shanghai - China

On the IUOMA platform (see: http://iuoma-network.ning.com/) there are 44 visitors from China. One of them is a member of the IUOMA and lives in Shanghai. So I am please to have her mailing address and am sending this into the mail today. Because of the Social Network I can keep trach directly to if the mail arrives or not, and even get comments on the process. So a first connection to the mainland China.

Amo Mao wrote that mail-art to Hong Kong is different to the mainland. Because of the British history of Hing Kong the regulation in that part are different. So that is why this first test is an important one. Shanghai is a large city in China. There are so many artists in that city. Would be interesting to have a first communication by traditional mail.
