Leading civil rights attorneys commissioned this project after the artist traveled across the country photographing and interviewing individuals who were wrongfully convicted of heinous crimes of which they were innocent. The subjects are photographed at sites of particular significance to their illegitimate conviction: the scene of the crime, the scene of misidentification, the scene of arrest, or the scene of the alibi. The portraits are accompanied by commentary from the attorneys who worked to exonerate them.

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.
