Mail Me Art: London

Darren Di Lieto has come up with quite the fun idea for a collaborative art project. He’s from the U.K., and already has quite the ‘chock full’ illustration site going– The Little Chimp Society (LCSV4)– but is expanding his creativity even more with the Mail Me Art Project. The gist: in 18-24 months at a location TBD (I know, a little vague, but bear with him), Darren will be throwing a show with submissions from all those who create ‘mail art’ out of, in Darren’s words, envelopes or packages which have been drawn on, painted , dipped in acid, covered in paper mache (anything you want really) but they must look amazing and they must have travelled though the post with the postman able to see the work, so you can't paint a canvas and wrap it up and post it to me. The wrapping is your canvas or in most cases an envelope (read more here). Those submitting final pieces for the show in London will get 70% of the selling price and some “really cool prizes.” I hope to see some submissions in there from some of you, so keep me posted if you decide to participate!
