Message
Paying homage to the humble postage stamp and a playful exaggeration of scale. This up-scaling of the ubiquitous stamp invites the viewer to examine their relationship to these objects which are used daily by thousands and possibly millions of people. In being 'life size', they demand a conversation of equal standing with the viewer. And by referencing stamps from the past I am acknowledging our implicit nostalgia for things historical.
