We are pleased to announce that Mail Me Art 2′s final winner is Michael Hacker!
We loved this fun design and the way the envelope has been used as part of the artwork. We haven’t photographed what’s inside the dog’s mouth, but if you check out this link to Michael’s site you can see more!

Michael wins an iPod Touch skin designed by Zeptonn and donated by Infectious, a Design-a-Qee designed and donated by Alex Amelines, a t-shirt designed and donated by Chris Thornley and a signed copy of the book Mail Me Art: Going Postal with the World’s Best Illustrators and Designers.

Take a look at some of Michael’s other cool work: www.michaelhacker.at

All of the mail art for January has now been added to the Gallery. You can also view the submissions for the month on Flickr.

Finally, yet another huge thank you must go to everyone who has taken part in Mail Me Art 2. The overall quality of work has made it extremely difficult picking winners each month, but it does mean the exhibition should be fantastic!

Mail Me Art is now closed for new submissions.

All work sent on or before the 1st February 2010 will be accepted. We will get all of January’s submissions up on the site and announce this month’s winner as soon as possible.

An absolutely enormous thank you is in order to everyone who has taken part in the project! There has been so much simply amazing artwork sent in. The exhibition should be brilliant

Don’t forget to keep checking back for updates and announcements about the project and exhibition!

As the 31st January is a Sunday (which makes it rather difficult to post mail art on that day!), any submissions sent on the 1st February will be accepted.
