I guess I’m on a roll with mail art this week. Recently I read an interview with a mail artist and thought it was interesting. He makes mail art out of junk mail. I don’t know about you, but I have a gazillion pieces of junk mail and hate it. He has a great solution for it!
So, go check out the interview with Artist Rev K over at the Bearded Bunny Blog.
Also, on the same topic I’d like to recommend the book Creative Correspondence. They have a great section about how to creatively repurpose junk mail.

It’s a small world after all!!!! I was a sponsor for Hessian’s art hunt this fall. And my husband works with the Rev. BWAHAHAHAHA!! Great guy, his wife is an amazing artist.

What is Hessian’s art hunt? Okay, that’s a crazy small world story!
He goes to different cities and hides art in parks! He’s actually a fellow Minneapolisian (?) but he’s done a bunch all over the states.

Great to see you Pam, from the empty envelope, and also Wendy thanks for linking to my article with Rev K. Here is my personal take on the junk mail project: http://beardedbunnyblog.blogspot.com/2008/03/kill-junk-mail.html

Hi William!! So happy you stopped by. The art hunts sound so cool — you need to bring one to Arkansas! I tried to click on the info link that talks about how you bring an art hunt to your city, but it’s broken. Waah!
Thanks for the kind attention folks. Here’s a link to my myspace profile:
