SIGNS AND STONES AND SNAKES, my project towards a new millennium 1999-2000

Documentation on a social mail art project in support of the Cuereghem area in Anderlecht, Brussels. A park was built on a wasteland right above the underground river Zenne. Snake murals by local kids and artists surrounded the park. A promised catalogue never saw the light, so that was a lesson in cooperation with local authorities. Nevertheless the snake project became one of the best mail art projects I developed, so no regrets !!! Non, je ne regrette rien (dixit Edith Piaf)

A SNAKE STAMP FOR GUIDO

A stamp Annemiek made for my project and that I'm still using today!
From Annemiek Bibbe, The Netherlands

EAST versus WEST

Different perception in different cultures:
Christian, snake = seducer
Eastern, snake = force of creation
