The Office For Postal Arts; 2024.04.21

The Office for Postal Arts is a publication for correspondence and mail art. It’s become a habit of mine to find excuses to send my friends things through the mail, and this is that habit’s latest manifestation. Run by an imaginary institution, the publication is fitted for a standard #10 envelope and takes on the form of various print ephemera. This issue is dated for 2024.04.21, and is loosely centered around faith, luck, and chance. The zine will have a few colour variants available for its envelope cover.

About the artist: Jan Ly is a graphic designer and artist based in Toronto, Canada. A graduate of the York University/Sheridan College Program in Design, his work spans across visual identity, publications, digital spaces, motion graphics, and video.
