The latest edition of the Mail Art Bulletin arrived with no indication of the artist’s identity and only a postmark that let us know it was mailed in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts.
This anonymous work — the first we’ve received — is the most digital image, and informed by digital aesthetics, we’ve received. While most mail art lends itself to a handmade and analog quality, here the artist has gone to the other extreme and sent us a digital print on photo paper with no indication of context.
I also appreciated the pattern of 10 and five cent stamps on the envelope, which echoes the patterned geometry within.
