Quagmire Postcards

This work is part of a long-term conceptual project involving the mailing of thick cardboard postcards featuring politically charged visual poetry on the front. There are, at present, fifteen postcards in the series. Christian Parenti asserts that mobility is “the currency of resistance”—accordingly, these postcards constitute a gesture of resistance designed for U.S. Postal Service workers as well as anyone else who may peruse, scuff, deface, or ponder these postcards while they are in transit. -Jules Boykoff
