Photographs and text by PAUL YULE
A beautifully produced retrospective covering more than five decades of Paul Yule’s evolution as an image-maker. It combines personal memories with historical events and visual storytelling, documenting Yule’s life from his childhood in apartheid-era South Africa to his career as a photojournalist, filmmaker, and artist. The title underscores the theme of gradual artistic awakening and ongoing experimentation with photography serving as both practice and therapy.
The book invites the viewer to witness the practice of seeing itself – the shift from technical proficiency to visual intuition borne of life and place, combining personal growth, cultural observation, documentary purpose, and artistic exploration.
Rupert Martin writes: “Of its time and timeless. Wonderful story telling with humanity, acute observation and an unerring eye for composition. The photographs’ witty juxtaposition, mixing reportage with enigmatic insight and strangeness with familiarity, fuse poignant personal memories with a dynamic professional life. The portraits are a revelation, as are the early and late South African pictures. The book starts in B&W with it’s granular rigour, and ends in colour, like Tarkovsky’s Rublev – a book to treasure and revisit.”
