Beautiful flowers were the subject of a call for mail art in 2020. The submission address was:
Magandang Bulaklak
Renoca Lobo Art Gallery
#84 B – Rincon Road
Valenzuela City
Philippines
Since Vincent van Gogh’s sunflowers, every artist has painted flowers at some point in his or her career. Therefore, I thought the gallery in the Philippines would receive tons of cards and letters.
Maybe they did.
We don’t know because nobody ever reacted to the works that were submitted. There was no confirmation; there was no exhibition; there was only silence.
If you look up the address on Google Earth, you find a poor area with nothing that resembles a gallery.
Well, it seems that you find imposters everywhere, even in the mail art network …
