Postcard Collective

During my undergraduate program at the University of Arizona, I took a photography class with a graduate student teacher. This teacher introduced us to his project, The Postcard Collective: an international exchange of art-via-postcard meant to encourage the sharing of art and foster a feeling of connection amongst participating artists. This was my contribution to an exchange before my graduation in 2013. Read more about The Postcard Collective here.

The backside of a postcard reading "Plant this postcard."

The plantable postcard is meant to evoke real delight and hopeful anticipation in its recipients while alluding to the larger theme of rebirth.
