Love Letters Project

Love letters is a very original project developed by Asia Wong. These are not classical love letters and they don't deal with pre-programed words or feelings. They are not solely addressed to lovers but also to friends, crushes, family, strangers and acquaintances. Some letters are just normal or even a bit banal, but there are others which are surprising, interesting, insightful, funny and clever. They are organized by colours so one can see who the letter is addressed to. Many people have got several letters, according to the importance of the relationship in a given time - Check it out.

Meanwhile I found another similar project - The mysterious Letters- which kind of relates to the love letters. I am not sure which came first but I like to think none of them did. History repeats itself and many times we have an original idea which is being reproduced somewhere else at that very instant. Mysterious Letters is a collaboration between artists Lenka Clayton and Michael Crowe who sent a personal, handwritten letter to each of the 467 households in the small Irish seaside town of Cushendall. All the letters were different in form and content. The artists hoped that these beautiful unsolicited letters would prompt neighbourly discussion that would spread across the town, promoting community curiosity. The art work consists solely of the discussion between the recipients about what on Earth these letters are, who sent them and why, etc...
