Sponte Sua (of one's own motion) draws us into a universe of faces and bodies, as if suspended, hesitating between several realities. "These portraits quiver with a very particular life. They reflect, indeed, all the ambiguity of the genre: the 'blur' that characterises them reintegrates all the presence of the photographed subject. [...] The unease that emanates from these portraits could correspond to an evasion, a flight of the subject." Nathalie Luyer, Vis à Vis International. Before these off-kilter images, Nathalie Papin proposes an imaginary crossing alongside these impalpable "actors", who have become, under her pen, an astonished procession.

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.
