STATEMENT
When I started this project, it was just to correspond with family and friends in an amusing way that addressed the current global situation. Because I wanted to send a personal message to each recipient, I decided that a postcard would be ideal to use for this project; not to mention I would design it to my own specifications. There is something magical about the written word and the intimacy that it conveys; let’s not forget as well the nostalgia because who really corresponds like this anymore?
Over time the project has grown from a correspondence for a handful of people, to a printed postcard sent to now over 100 recipients in 12 states and 9 countries. In the end I hope I was able to give everyone a smile, a challenge, and a reminder that even in a global pandemic we will prevail.
