Envelopes

Four chromogenic prints capture intimate close-up views of envelopes, their surfaces revealing the subtle textures, folds, and wear of everyday correspondence. Bush transforms these mundane objects into quietly compelling still lifes, drawing attention to the overlooked beauty of ordinary paper vessels. Mounted in individual wood contact printing frames, the work emphasizes both the tactile and archival qualities of the photographic medium itself.
