Art Nahpro (Paul Jackson) /Hazel Jones/ A1 - Collaborative Bookwork.

Returned from Paul the other day. It was supposed to travel onward as these things do but returned for some more collaging, rubber stamping etc. So this is really a work in progress.

Hazel Jones/A.1. - Envelope

Hazel Jones/ A.1. - Collaged Flyers

Open publication - Free publishing - More collage

Old collaged flyers turned into ebook at Issuu. We did about three of these at the time- usually when we were in Walsall , at Hazel's parents when we were first "courting". A shared sense of the absurd is very useful and a love of mail art ofcourse, which was very strong at the time. We photo copied these and with added rubber stamps and writing they were duly dispatched into the Mailstrom.
