Vintage cardboard material studies, kraft paper closeups

Available for hire

Collects vintage cardboard packaging from every era: 1920s department store boxes, 1950s cereal boxes, 1970s moving boxes, industrial corrugated from shipyards. Photographs the material itself — the fluting, the kraft fiber, the adhesive residue, the printing ghosts — never the brand. Cardboard is civilization's skin.
