The books to hold the cards have been selected both randomly and specifically by myself and the curator Izabela Barry (her selections are unknown to me).<br \/>\nThe cards are to be found by borrowing patrons as a surprise. A text will instruct to drop the postcard in the nearest mailbox, but first to write in the allotted spaces the book&#8217;s tiltle, author, and a line or two from the book that to the reader somehow corresponds to the card&#8217;s image. One received back by me each card will be photographed front &amp; back to be posted on this blog. The main aim of this project is to get a sense of what people are reading and to see what, if any, is the relationship of image and text.<br \/>\nBorrowing patrons remain anonymous.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2389\" style=\"width: 770px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2389\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2389\" title=\"Nature of Seeing_Window_001\" src=\"http:\/\/monikaphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Nature-of-Seeing_Window_0011.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"760\" height=\"564\" srcset=\"http:\/\/monikaphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Nature-of-Seeing_Window_0011.jpg 760w, http:\/\/monikaphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Nature-of-Seeing_Window_0011-300x222.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2389\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Window In\/Out To #1 \u00a9 MONIKA SOSNOWSKI<\/p><\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2385\" title=\"Thoreau_Nature_5481\" src=\"http:\/\/monikaphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Thoreau_Nature_5481.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"760\" height=\"507\" srcset=\"http:\/\/monikaphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Thoreau_Nature_5481.jpg 760w, http:\/\/monikaphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Thoreau_Nature_5481-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2390\" title=\"CART\" src=\"http:\/\/monikaphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/CART.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"760\" height=\"507\" srcset=\"http:\/\/monikaphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/CART.jpg 760w, http:\/\/monikaphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/CART-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2391\" title=\"Artist-sign\" src=\"http:\/\/monikaphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Artist-sign.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"760\" height=\"507\" srcset=\"http:\/\/monikaphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Artist-sign.jpg 760w, http:\/\/monikaphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Artist-sign-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullcircle-social-links\" style=\"display: block;\"><div class=\"fullcircle-linkshare\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/share.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fmonikaphoto.com%2F%3Fp%3D2373\" class=\"fb_share_button\"  target=\"_blank\" style=\"text-decoration:none;\">Facebook<\/a><\/div><div class=\"fullcircle-linkshare\"><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/home?status=Dear+Reader%3A+Thank+you+for+finding+this+postcard%21 + http%3A%2F%2Fmonikaphoto.com%2F%3Fp%3D2373\" class=\"twitter\"  target=\"_blank\" style=\"text-decoration:none;\">Twitter<\/a><\/div><\/div><div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div><div class=\"pp-fb-like-btn-wrap\"><div class=\"fb-like\" data-href=\"http:\/\/monikaphoto.com\/?p=2373\" data-share=\"true\" data-layout=\"standard\" data-width=\"450\" data-show-faces=\"false\" data-action=\"like\"><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As part of the NATURE OF SEEING (we took a walk; we&#8217;ve been at this for a while now) exhibit and artist residency at the Greenpoint Library, at least 50 stamped and addressed postcards with a variety of images from the installation have been placed in its collection.
