The singular phenomenon of visitors from other planets leads us to reflect on notions of solitude and abandonment, on the void and the immensity of the universe. UFO presences can be detected in the most hidden-away places, like a mystery of the landscape.

UFO Presences conceptualizes the places where these strange phenomena have transformed their surroundings, endowing them with a singular energy. The UFOs have always been there, but over the last fifty years, and especially with the development of the world of communications and the image, they have become more palpable and genuine. The many stories in this book constitute peculiar metaphors of the visual concept of the phenomenon.

ABOUT

SpineIndex is a digital platform dedicated to independent photobooks, photography 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.
