This exhibition aims to connect individuals’ shared experiences through collaboration and conversation. Participants were asked to anonymously contribute to this mail art project by submitting a postcard that reveals something about their life. Originally designed to document responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, this project has broadened its scope to also respond to racial injustice, the BLM movement, and other current events to connect people during this historic time of uncertainty and isolation.
Some silly, some serious, the goal of this installation is to create a unique and creative space for individuals to share their experiences in conversation with other perspectives in a safe and contactless way.
This project is curated and developed by Joseph Hladik, the Director of Education & Grants Administrator at Elmhurst Art Museum.
