Brings together a collection of diverse imagery created over the past five years, featuring location shots and stills placed alongside frames taken in and around a desert region. Subject matter is varied, imagery of gun-toting figures, hooded beauty contestants and blood-soaked revellers mingling with shots of empty laundromats, manicured topiary and bleached-out street scenes, creating an alternative vision of the West that's both familiar and distant at the same time. Talent lies in a deft ability to manipulate conventional genres into new arrangements that expand what one would normally associate with a road movie or a photo book, combining fact and fiction into a tart cocktail that presents a unique view of the landscape, unseen in any publication to date.

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.
