Essay by Marian Rupp
Edition of 150, numbered

Intrusion traces the entanglement of migration in cartographies. The project juxtaposes Google Street View screenshots of the northern French city of Calais, taken between 2014 and 2018, with their updated 2019 versions, each on a double-page spread. The earlier images show numerous refugees, tents and camps; after Google's 2019 update no people are visible, and newly erected, martial border fences appear instead. Whether the removal of the traces of the crisis from the internet was politically motivated or just part of a standardised update process remains unanswered, even after an inquiry to Google.

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.
