Family Sleeping is an evolving body of work that gently considers the role photographs play in memory consolidation and in our understanding of family relationships. Using images from her family archive, Hanako Muller merges her own pictures into those moments to explore how individual timelines, experiences and lives can morph and overlap when visual reminders carry a sense of familiarity. Finding echoes in intergenerational imagery, she looks for comfort in photography's ability to disrupt our linear perception of time and to blur the distance between lives. The zine is number nine in CCP.PE.ZINE, the collaboration between the Centre for Contemporary Photography and Perimeter Editions for emerging photographic artists. The cover shows a woman with a braid asleep on a bed in white clothes, with a radio and cassette tapes beside her.

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.
