Using a modified full spectrum camera and a set of bandpass filters, Martine Stig explores her nearby environment in the near-infrared and ultraviolet, wavelengths imperceptible to humans but visible to bats, bees and machines. The camera's white balance function, typically used to transfer light colour perceived by humans to images, cannot be used as designed. Instead, Stig used random white balance pre-sets; the alien colours highlight the lack of standard or norm and reveal a slightly different reality.

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.
