Series: Follow Me, Collecting Images Today

Made for screens, it becomes here a landscape on paper: an arrangement of images that pulls the reader into a country at once digital and mental, built to repeat without end. The pages are not turned but unfolded, over four metres, like the map of a world nobody has walked.

On the other side of the sheet an essay by Nicolas Thély, Landscapes Without Roots: In Search of the Foundations of an Interconnected World, sets out what is at stake in the work and in our fascination for that territory, calling on Alain Roger and Jean Baudrillard.

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.
