Julia Soboleva (b. 1990, Latvia; Russian minority family; based Manchester) paints on top of found photographs sourced from Manchester flea markets and charity shops. Strange creatures dominate, performing what look like weird experiments with dated technology or human bodies. A mix of photography, painting, and collage, the book is a research on fear and madness. The book's only text is a closing quote from Frank Herbert's Dune: 'I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.'
