The book is conceived as an investigation, or rather an undefinable quest, plunging into a dark, grave universe whose first impression is a sudden loss of bearings. Composing this empty, timeless set, the author sends the viewer toward an unknown "Distance", a slow, uncertain progression through a landscape gradually marked by codified landmarks placed with precision, indeterminate objects of openly artificial matter seeming to exist in an inaccessible space, exhaling the scent of oblivion; phantom figures wander these pages, their shadows recalling Freud, Kafka and Tarkovsky as pieces of a puzzle reconstructed step by step.

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.
