Text by Tom McDonough

By re-photographing film stills of famous actresses holding cameras, the artist switches the subject of the picture from the woman being photographed to the viewer looking at her. These iconic women, ordinarily positioned as objects of the gaze, stare back through their own raised lenses, repositioning themselves as the ones doing the looking rather than the ones being looked at.

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.
