Correspondance, postcards with Pedro Lira and Éditions N'importe quoi !







The works developed for the exhibition Il faut imaginer Sisyphe heureux. Bisogna immaginare Sisifo felice ! were built by correspondence.
It was also built with softness and even if the idea behind of corresponding someone is to receive something, it easily shows the opposite. I think that it was on that edge, with the practice of drawing, that our exchange of moods fitted so well. Nothing concrete to be said – even if dense – without a deadline or a predicted format. Just to exchange some drawings over time.
Ironicly, the exhibition was assembled by the team of the street gallery (BREVE MENTE gallery) at Montempor-o-Novo in Portugal, three days before the lock down that confined most of the world for almost two months. This idea of co-respondence presents itself to be a key factor to relieve the anxiety/discomfort that prevailed in these unknown times.
We decided to extend this correspondence beyond us by creating postcards with some of the drawings presented in the exhibition.
In the back of each postcard, we ask to the person who receives it to record and send us some background sounds from his/her daily life, in order to make an online archive.
Kevin Claro and Pedro Lira

This object/packaging contains 12 postcards (~9,5 x 13,5 cm each), printed on reams of white paper with 140gm  that came from the leftovers of a printing shop from Montpellier.
We will, as always, print according the demand.
We decided to ask three different prices:
A starting price – 4
An average prince – 8
A push up price – 15

Send us a message if you are interested.
