The postcards Gracia Haby and Louise Jennison have posted here come
from far-away places and long-ago times, with out-of-context twists
— owls and diamonds say — pasted over
the top. In the same vein, human accoutrements — wine
glasses, dollar notes, children's floaties — are incorporated
into the drawings of endangered animals slipped into other mailboxes
here. These two artists are frequent collaborators, with Haby responsible
for the collage on postcards and Jennison for the watercolour and pencil
drawings.
Until April 20.
