As a child, daydreaming on my bed, I would sometimes close my right eye and imagine what my life would be like if I lost it. Suffering from Amblyopia in my left eye, also called lazy eye, the world around me appears as if through a blurred photographic lens. This obsession gave rise to some of the images most representative of this book.

These photographs are of dreams, a series of reveries connecting with the unconscious. It is a collection of analog images made over 20 years, mostly from my youth, when I photographed without any technique, reference or method. Unconsciously.

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.
