Pictures made on commission for the Sharjah Biennial 8 in the United Arab Emirates in 2007. Camels and people stand and wander beneath a pale sky. Rika Noguchi balances the small differences in scale between the animals, which depend on her distance and on the positions of the subjects, and the images keep a free and natural feeling throughout. Her approach, which has explored the relationship between places and people since the early 1990s, resembles a journey in pursuit of the logic of a reality built from accumulated accidents.

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.
