Envelope created by Orfee Swerts, Halen, Belgium.
Horror is one of Orfee's favourite themes in mail art - strange creatures, monsters, etc... Alyonka can be easily imagined as a main character of a horror film, can't she?
Creative people from around the world are invited to make artworks with the image of Alyonka, a well-known Russian chocolate brand. Works are collected by Ivan Zemtsov (P.O. BOX 28 YOSHKAR-OLA 424037 RUSSIA) and posted there. The first "Alyonka" show was presented to public in Yoshkar-Ola Museum of Fine Arts in October 2006 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kk9ruvAzT5M). But the project is still ongoing! Download Alyonka's image at http://denis.charmot.free.fr/ivan_zemtsov.htm.
