I think this is the most ephemeral art I have ever received. This is painted with chalk on a toilet paper cardboard (I guess). The chalk was still visible when it arrived but I am not sure that it will remain long time. It says nevető tehén ('laughing cow' in Hungarian).
I was a (small) part of a discussion about the ephemeral nature of mail art in general over at IUOMA. This takes it to a literal level. I suppose if the laughing Hungarian cow fades completely, you can recycle the canvas and transform the piece.
ReplyDeleteThat's a good idea!
DeleteArt will find a way. The art is sweet. The artist has mad talent. :) Lucky you!
ReplyDeleteShe has, indeed :)
DeleteÉs estrany que arribés intacte! Això de la pissarra està molt de moda, ara. Li ha quedat molt bé, però era ben arriscat.
