Summary: The newspaper was created to hold images that I had taken over a year. These images where taken with no thought in mind to the outcome. I focused on object that had been left in the street by Brighton residence, these objects to me felt like sculptures in a gallery park. I documented them in such a way that they felt like sculptures. I have left out any explanation of this from the paper and also on the website, this was so the view could take from the work what they wish. On the website you will find a email conversation between myself and Benedict Burbridge, detailing the thoughts behind the work.

The Indie Photobook Library is TWO!

This past weekend, the Indie Photobook Library celebrated its 2nd Anniversary. Thank you to all the photographers/artists/bookmakers that have made the collection what it is today! I’d also like to thank Advisory Board members Darius Himes, Andy Adams, Shane Lavalette, and Gabe Reed and all the venues that have welcomed the iPL. In the last two years, the collection has grown to almost 1000 books. The iPL continues to promote and showcase the books in the collection through international pop-up and feature-length exhibitions, articles, conferences, guest lectures, and also preserves them as a non-circulating public library. Having a specific collection dedicated to this contemporary movement in publishing allows for the development of future discourse on trends in self-publishing, the ability to reflect on and compare books in the collection, and for scholarly research to be conducted years, decades, and centuries to come. I am looking forward to continuing the iPL mission.

Cheers,
Larissa Leclair
