You Are Cordially Invited is an artist book created from vintage found wedding photographs.
The cover is made from a vintage photo card folder, folded in half to separate the couple, the bride opens the book, the husband closes it. The tissue paper is the original stained paper that once protected the prints, making the act of opening the book a pause between two lives captured in a moment.
Inside, the pages hold photographs layered with marks, scratches, and delicate sprinkles of paint applied with a toothbrush. These subtle interventions give the images an ethereal, almost ghostly quality, fading like memories.
The binding is adorned with minuscule glass beads that catch the light.
