Sri is a Sanskrit word meaning beauty or majesty, still used in many South Asian languages as an honorific term denoting respect. Nick Sethi's latest publication contains 288 photographs taken over three days in 2022, when he and his mother visited Vrindavan, an ancient city and pilgrimage site rooted in Indian mythology. Presented chronologically, the photographs investigate physical manifestations of respect and value through ritual, decoration, utility, touch and connection to nature and to one another, all common themes in his work. It accompanies a show at Dashwood Projects on East 4th Street in New York's East Village.

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.
