There's a new collage on The Paper Chain block!

I received this lovely collage in the mail yesterday! I'm so excited!

We have been running the Paper Chain since April this year, seeing all the lovely work everyone was producing I was waiting (as patiently as I could) for my name to come up in our monthly random name picks and at last it did.

Morgana Robb has made this very inspiring mixed media collage for me and I now need to make a collage response to send onto the next link in our chain (#8). You can pop over to our Paper Chain blog to see a slideshow with detailed images of Morgana's collage, follow our progress, and even join in if you like : )

The Paper Chain is gaining momentum!

Two new collages have recently arrived in Paper Chain peoples mail boxes! Go see!

New Paper Chain Collage

Paper Chain

Claire² is a collaborative duo I am one half of with my good friend, Claire Canham. We are currently hosting a collage project called Paper Chain.

Paper Chain has been running since April this year and started as an experiment on Facebook. At present there are 24 active participants and the FB group has 82 members (made up of active & interested parties).

We are interested in the concept of networking/connecting and the physicality and joy of receiving mail. A project where people who are friends, aquaintences and strangers interact online, materially and in their creative capacities.

All participants make and receive a collage through the postal service. As there has been plenty of interest and we thought it might be nice to display the work being produced to more than just Facebook users, we recently launched a blog for Paper Chain.

We have a broad definition of collage for this project, and though paper is in the title it is not necessary that the work is made out of paper. We have had people express interest in doing collage with sound, video, textile, and many other materials. We are really looking forward to seeing the many interpretations of what collage means.
