HS is a journal of eighteen photographs echoing Amaury da Cunha's narrative Histoire souterraine, published simultaneously by Éditions du Rouergue, forming an echo chamber, a photographic annex alongside the text. The autobiographical account deals with a brother's death in Singapore, a broken love affair in Sicily and a series of ill-fated incidents; though some places and striking faces from the story recur, the images carry no captions or markers of time and place, instead drawing an autonomous, potentially narrative space marked by dazzlement, strangeness and the dark beauty of the world, like "wandering icons destined to drift".

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.
