The Wayland Rudd Collection, 2014
I am constructing a fragmented photo portrait of Wayland Rudd and his wife. The photo fragments are printed on envelopes, which travelled through the mail - sent back to me by participants. This idea was inspired by the images of postage stamps in the Wayland Rudd collection - particularly the Nelson Mandela stamp.
