Collages with stickers

Two years ago Pierre at Éditions Bessard asked if I wanted to make a book of collages. I couldn't have been more excited — I've been making collages since I was three years old. When I was a kid it was mainly pictures of animals cut out of magazines, glued to colourful paper and always ending up stapled into a book. This is the first published book to feature my collages, and it also contains stickers scanned from my own collection, which I hope people will use to customise their copies. The collages star several girls — some recognisable from my self-published books — frolicking among flowers, amusement parks, outer space, horses, candy bags, stamps and tape. All the things that make me happy. I hope they make you happy too.

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.
