ANDREW BUSH - DRIVE
andrewbush.net
To look at a person while they are driving, is to sneak a glimpse of their private space. They are in their bubble, and you, a stranger, see in to their zone. Your gaze is arguably invasive. The charge... erotic? Given the brevity of this interaction, as two objects in motion pass by each other, I think of my mind taking a snap-shot of the moment.
There is another theory, which I call the Shoe Theory: that the shoes we wear (or in this case the car they drive) communicate something about who we/they are as a person. This sort of object symbolism can be a purposeful message, or simply circumstantial. Either way, it is a fun game to play while hurtling down the highway.
Andrew Bush's on-going photo series is fascinating to look at, no matter how you plug in. Enjoy.
