Flower, the fourth volume in Sakiko Nomura's photobook project, gathers the feelings she invests in flowers. Though blossoms are generally thought of as beautiful things, here the flowers Nomura sees carry the meaning of offerings to the dead: blooms at graves, flowers laid at the sites of traffic accidents, withered stems, sex, artificial flowers, taxidermy and wax figures. The significance these subjects hold for her is immeasurable.

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.
