Foreword by Martin Parr

Nosey Parker is the inaugural title in RRB's Platform series, a publishing project supporting emerging voices in British documentary photography. In the book Hannah Platt revisits Peter Mitchell's Leeds and the surrounding cities five decades after he first picked up a camera; where Mitchell is contemplative, Platt works with a quickness and wry humour, drawn to bright colour, graphic lines and typographic treasures. The series celebrates the everyday: fleeting beauty, bold type, golden sunrises and stand-out shopfronts that wink to the charm and wit of a very British land. In every nook and cranny Platt captures the mundanity of contemporary life with an appreciation for the people and places of Leeds and beyond who showcase their unsupervised humour—which is, of course, what makes the work perfect for a Nosey Parker. The same playful approach is reflected in Platt's design work and in the postcard set issued to accompany the launch of the book.

ABOUT

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.
