Post Restante

Post Restante is a series of envelopes that I mailed from around the world back to my home address. I typed a message or a famous quote onto each envelope and then covered it in a paper address wrapper which I removed after the letter made its way back to Canada.

Thus far, these are the 12 envelopes that reached their destination out of the twenty that I mailed from France, Cuba, Spain, Australia, USA, England, Mexico, Germany, Portugal and North Korea.

Not surprisingly, the envelope I had sent (through a friend) from North Korea did not make it back to me. I guess Kim Jong-Il isn’t a big fan of conceptual art.
