A Tribute To Mail-Art

Mail-Art is about: sending artful things.
It is the desire to make sending things something special.
If you can send it you can make it.

Collage Artist - Ray Johnson (1927-1995)

Known primarily as a collagist, and was a seminal

figure in the history of early Pop-Art.

He is considered the 

"Founding Father of Mail-Art".

Ray would mail small collages to people, and encourage them

to add or subtract to the work and them mail it on.

making others feel special too!

I can not think there any other better way...

 than through art?
