The Exhibition is now up.

The final complex images that began as postcards are on display with a selection of digital images showing details of the process and a record of this blog.

i have just finished working on the last postcard of this project...linda's lovely screenprint of her mother. i've added bits of a floaty image that i've been making as a soft ground etch.

its been such good fun getting these through the post! once again the envelope was nice to work on as well.

i really enjoyed editing all the images we'd scanned and photographed, and they look great framed. mirror plates on tonight and off they go to their first exhibition. pamx

..loved the little book that came with the postcard..decided to carry on with the plug trees idea ...so put little cut out shapes into the book...reminds me of those i did as a child ...also liked the funny shapes i ended up with ,think I'll put some on the envelope...

...great to see the postcards on the move again...it's interesting to see the idea of addition and subtraction , also construction and reconstruction being used as a process with the postcards...I've particularly enjoyed a certain sense of freedom with working on the cards ...I suppose it's been the sense of collective responsibility for me personally ...L

This image seems to me to be complete already after only 4 artists have worked with it. The idea began from a 'book' and so I have added a page and put it back into a 'book'.

Another 2 postcards arrived. Once I have added to this one it is finished. It was labelled as 'Hidden and Revealed' and so I decided to take everything apart and go from there.

we are working together on ways to organise the postcard project as an exhibition. thinking about all the artwork, what size and in what format to do it, how many pieces to include, how best to display the different formats of the separate postcards and how to describe what we made and how it came about. we're collecting together each of our own records of the different stages of the postcards as they travelled between us.
