Series: Inn Situ

As part of the INN SITU series, photographers focus on the Tyrol/Vorarlberg region. The title refers to a character in Sartre's novel who realizes that “everything begins to float” when it no longer sees themself as the center of the world. This moment marks a turning point in the history of philosophy—the dethronement of humans as the crown of creation. Dezső focuses his gaze on the seemingly inconspicuous: forest floors in Tyrol and Vorarlberg, captured as color negatives that reveal the silent, organic network of moss, leaves, roots, and light. The reversal of colors challenges our habitual perception. Dezső makes the invisible visible—not through representation, but through atmosphere—and creates a quiet plea for mindfulness and connection with the natural world.

ABOUT

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.
