Snail Mail
A sketchbook telephone game where a single sketchbook was mailed from artist to artist! This was inspired over a call with a friend during a chat about our loss of connections with our peers as we moved to online spaces. In response to this shift we got a physical blank sketchbook with the goal of having it passed around documenting pockets of time and space.Each artist had 3 days to fill a blank page, with the intention of incorporating an element from the previous illustration, before mailing to the next person.
It ran from May 2020 to April 2021.
Postcard Prompt
Various artists were sent a blank 5x7 cards where they has to draw a response to mystery prompt. Here are the prompts and their postcards they mailed back!
