Return to Sender

Silver

The idea of Return to Sender is simple. Photographer, Sipke Visser sent 500 envelopes containing a picture, a stamped addressed envelope and a handwritten letter asking for people to respond to the picture. ’Write whatever, like something about the letter, yourself, the weather. About where you are, who you are, or where you’d like to be. Or send me a picture, anything…’ There interesting thing happening in Return to Sender is to do with how people see and understand photographs, something that can be extended into broader visual culture.
