"'I have no first name' was the vertiginous realisation I made one day. Or rather, I no longer had one. The old one was like an ugly old jumper, a family present you are made to wear: out of fashion, too big, too small, too tight, suffocating. Too feminine. A name is gendered, a name tells a story, a name can be changed. Changed, yes — but for which one? How do you choose?" Five names follow one another in the work, like so many past identities, while the photographs follow a transition and the skin that a first name gives, or takes away.

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.
