This series of graphic work was created in Kasterlee, Belgium at the Frans Masereel Centre and is an extension of my previous series on communication and language. It initially came about after I found a box of used postcards and letters in a second hand shop in Zürich, where I was living at the time. I continued to collect correspondence during my travels in Europe, admiring the elegant scripts, wax encrusted envelopes and recognising many of the places and return addresses. Keeping in touch is faster, easier and more convenient now but there is an intimacy that has been lost with electronic media. These works are a reminder of the investment once made in personal relationships in putting pen to paper, buying a stamp, trekking to the post office.
