Into the Unseen unsettles our understanding of the photographic medium through a multisensory approach that engages its affective dimensions. In six chapters the book guides readers through sensorial encounters: “Frequencies of Darkness” explores darkness as a hinge between documentation and imagination; “Holding Everyday Life” focuses on the photo album as a haptic object made to be touched and held; “Listening to the Land” contemplates the traces of trauma and resistance in decolonized landscapes; “Tracing Sediments” explores images that carry inscriptions of loss, damage, recovery and reclamation; “Tasting, Touching, Feeling” turns to artists who push the boundaries of perception and social norms; and “Sensing Time” asks us to feel change from a non-human perspective. The book accompanies an exhibition of the same name at Deichtorhallen Hamburg.

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.
