Set within the quiet intimacy of a home, it is uncertain whether this series is a personal document or a performative exchange. Created by the long time collaborators Maxwell Anderson and Todd Lamming, it plays with the idea of ambiguous sexuality and the domesticisation of sexual tension.

The relationship between the photographer and his subject is unclear: whether the two are friends or lovers, whether they have known each other for one night or one decade. Their interactions are both lustful and banally familiar. The photographer muses over the man we see, both observing him voyeuristically and making direct eye contact. The man alternates between casual indifference and deliberate engagement with his companion, sometimes appearing unaware, sometimes knowingly participating. The expectation of desire merges with mundane domestic ritual.

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.
