FEMAIL
2012 - 2020
8 year collaborative mail art project and clothing brand between Janelle Abbott and Camilla Carper. Duo made 7 clothing collections, many videos, collages, sculptures, and performances all through the USPS. Femail never finished work, the penpals continued to mailing objects back and forth, adding too and taking away in a continuous cycle. The only way to make FEMAIL stop working on an item was to purchase it and remove the item from their production cycle. Garments progress was tracked with the FEMAIL Pricing Equation Tags. Prices increased as garments circulated through system becoming increasingly dense, ugly, and unwearable.
