I started to make all these collages on Moroccan themes last July. I felt the need of explain that Morocco does not mean just camels (nothing against camels, don't misunderstand me!).
I am happy with the result, and I hope the receivers (and you!) do.
Sent to Karin (Sweden).
The picture of the working girl belongs to the exhibition Retratos de un Marruecos en marcha (='Portraits of a moving Morocco') by Moroccan photographer Hassam Nadim. Also published here.
Sent to Ilse (Germany).
The area where I live in is so green that my friends can't believe when I send them pictures. All colours in Morocco are intense. But still: blue and brown are the colours of Morocco.
Sent to Roberto (Italy).
This is a picture (oil on canvas, 60 x 50 cm) by Moroccan artist Abdeuchafi Ahriz (1956 - 2006). You necessarily go along this street when you visit the old town of Tangier.
Sent to Eva (Germany).
This one was sent as birthday card, to a pal who loves tea and mail (and cupcakes, I hope!).
Sent to the mail project Blue Postcards (Spain). You still can participate, until December 31st!
(Materials: reused cardboard from boxes of biscuits; a catalogue of an art auction; brochures of two exhibitions and a book fair; brochures of Slow Food Morocco; a holidays catalogue; a magazine; stickers; a post label and washi tape.)
I am happy with the result, and I hope the receivers (and you!) do.

| Savourez ('Enjoy. You are in Tangier') |
Sent to Lilli (Canada).
Tangier is 60 km far from my home, but sometimes it seems to be a different world. This picture was cut from a magazine, and I love it because of the colours and the sea. And because one of my favourite places in Tangier is a restaurant from which you can enjoy, more or less, this view.

| Éloge de la lenteur (Praise of slowness) |
Sent to Katerina (Greece).
This picture and its titre were cut from the brochure of a book fair. I like the slogan, because I doubt there is a place where slowness is so appreciated as in this country.
