83) Art in Mail: Mail Art?

I wonder: I see so many mail art send in envelopes, not as mail art. Wrong perception? What do you think?

I always fully use the empty spaces an enevope offers to add my own art.

I usually prefer not to send IN envelopes because I like the idea of my "postcard" beeing in contact with the hand of the postman (and here in the South of Italy postmen still have time to talk with us when we receive mail directly from them)

Mailing art in a package (envelope, box, etc.) is just sending a parcel. Mail Art has to be "exposed" to whatever might happen to it, to whomever might see it, and to carry the marks of its journey, deliberate or otherwise.

I want to mail them "out in the open" but am always afraid they won't arrive .... so I usually use envelopes.
