Depois gathers a series of recent photographs by André Cepeda taken in Porto, the city where the artist lives and a recurrent subject of his work. The collection suggests a physical — and mental — journey through various sites in a city where human presence is residual. Nothing appears to happen in these places. Along the way Cepeda photographs deserted streets, the facades of buildings, rudimentary constructions, monuments, ruins and abandoned materials and objects in settings permeated by melancholy and a sense of emptiness. It is a view that is harsh and sensitive, meditative and critical, reacting to space, matter and light, bestowing on certain places and objects a character at once familiar and strange, banal and mysterious. Depois is a work about what remains, but also about our desires and about what we are prepared to see in and make of the pictures.

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.
