We are not sure what Postcard Station will be entirely. But, we are excited to follow the thread and see where it goes. For 2025, we have lots of paintings, photography, video art, recipes, playlists, road trip guides, interviews, and a fun, limited online shop planned. Sign up for our weekly newsletter to join us on the ride.
Postcard 001
We’re tired of the endless scrolling. The click bait. The digital detritus. The time suck. The doom scroll. The dead internet. The infinite scroll. The almighty algorithm. The digital d-bags. The influencers. The fomo. The toxic comments. The content. The trolls. The bots. The incels. The freedumb of speech. The fake news. The real news. The corruption. The scams. The cults. The waste. The crypto bros. The AI evangelists. The women-haters. The revenge porn. The AI nudes. The deepfakes. The noxious debates.
My thumb hurts. My hands cramps. My neck hurts. My eyes. My braincells. Can’t sleep. Cant stay awake. Brain is on the fritz. We want off this broken, toxic, carnival ride.
The internet in 2025 is broken.
We know it. You know it. Everybody knows it.
We also know the good stuff is out there hidden beneath the onslaught of billions of comments, likes, stories, reels, videos, challenges and everything else being uploaded to feed the endless gluttony of the slot machine algorithm overlords. We might not be able to stop the endless churn that modern social media and internet use asks of us, but we can certainly step off the crazy train and slow down.
We are two artists who want to unwind our minds and enjoy our lives. We want to stop scrolling and start relaxing. We know there’s a better way to share the beauty of the world around us. We are removing ourselves from the digital rat race.
Do we feel the pull to use these toxic digital tools? Yes. Can we use them for our benefit, at our pace, on our time? Yes. Do we need to feed the gluttonous beast that the tech elite have shoved down our throats? No.
We want less internet. We want a better internet. A slower internet, that serves humans, instead of the other way around.
We are here to share our slow take with you. Share our art, our friends’ art, your art, strangers’ art. Share our memories, your memories and their memories. We are preserving memories through art.
Welcome to Postcard Station.
We are Sarah Elise Cole and Sam Cornwall. A painter and a photographer. We’ve put ourselves through the commercial creative gauntlet. Wiser now, we want to ditch the chaos for peace. We are searching for the calm after the storm. Join us on your journey and we can slow down together.
