Human activity keeps carrying animal and plant species into new habitats, where they can displace native species, upset ecological balances and contribute to the loss of biological diversity. Erik Irmer presents twenty-five of these non-native and invasive species in Europe, staging each with flash and coloured backgrounds; photographically he lifts them out of their "natural" surroundings and puts them at the centre of the picture, so that the encounter with each creature becomes the subject.

ABOUT

The project

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.

Images and rights

Covers, interior pages and descriptions are shown to introduce and identify the books, always crediting publisher, author and photographer and linking back to the publisher. We ask publishers for their permission, and we remove anything on request within 7 days. If you are a publisher, an author or a photographer and you want something changed or removed, write to info@spineindex.it.
