From Michael Leigh (UK)



















 Micheal Leigh wishes us all the best for the MSKChrome project. He describes his mail art as 'colourful'.  I'm sure you'll agree that it is much more than that!  Each piece shines a light on a different Michael Leigh talent.  The Curios Radio collaboration (with Roger Stevens) is a real treat and the cut up/xerography feel shouts monochrome, even though it is subtly coloured. Thank you Michael, for a wonderful series of pieces.


First official entry arrives from E coles (UK)

What do your arms do?


As I look at this on the screen I wonder if this  might be my first entry for Monochrome, Semitone, Kodachrome? The juxtaposition of black and white and colour and the shape of the mailing speaks of at least two of the prompts in the title.

I wonder where the dark figure is diving too and what sort of music he hears. Meanwhile, the joy of the swimming figure, bobbing up for air, arms in a heart, conjures up different music altogether.  Many thanks! As you can see, the stamps weren't franked, so I have no clues about where this mail artist comes from.
