Made entirely of frames from the artist’s film work

Her first book, made entirely of frames taken from her filmed work, in black and white and in colour. It takes the reader into a construction site on the edge of Casablanca — the Beast of the title — and into her family's small parcel of land beside it, holding a national building project and a domestic story in the same frame. In her words, the image, like reality, has to stay an enigma, and not a harmless one.

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.
