An alternate concept and a look behind the scenes:

[Back to school] Fake postcard

From Fake postcard

This was a recent art school project: create a fake foreign postcard using digitally unaltered photos taken in your home area. It had to be sent in by mail, too.

I got Vietnam, which was a tricky one since it's so very different from Central Europe. The closest link I could find was communist/industrial Vietnam.

We had 3 weeks to complete the project but I did it really quickly to leave ample time for printing and postal delivery. So I took the pictures in one afternoon within 2 kms of where I live and put the card together overnight.

It was printed on 250 g Super Gloss paper.

The arrangement on the front was inspired by the ornaments on one of the gates of the university in Hanoi. The little oriental character on the back was traced from an original piece of Vietnamese folk art I found on Flickr.

The sign on the front is the name of some traditional Vietnamese dish that translates to "Steamed dog's meat", it's repeated on the back side and the additional line is a Vietnamese proverb saying "Eat as [little as] a cat". I think.

Click to see the original photos and some others of sort-of-colonial/oriental-looking houses that were not used in the end.
