The book documents a seemingly quiet, intimate, existence in the company of her then partner, the artist, David Sylvian. Far from the world of popular music, the book reads like a visual poem of the time shared together. Sylvian is depicted in hotel rooms, small villages, graveyards, landscapes rural, exotic, and forbidding, before finally reaching a point of change, of grace, in the darkened rooms of Konya and Istanbul. Interspersed with poems and quotations, this is a tantalising and evocative glimpse of an intensely private life at a pivotal point in its evolution. David and I were frequently like planets revolving around one another and, in some sense, this gravitational pull continues to this day. Its hard to match the beauty of David Sylvians songs and sound in a visual context but, judging by this beautifully shot and presented book Yuka Fujiis images come very close.The item "David Sylvian Like Planets Yuka Fujii Signed Book 231/500 Limited Edition Rare" is in sale since Sunday, November 4, 2018.
