Romances by musician ‘The Late David Turpin’ is a visual embodiment of Turpin’s latest album of the same name. The softcover book includes a print with a download code for the album, and in the words of the artist;
”The objective, I suppose, is to find some way for an album release to continue to have a physical form within a streaming culture, and to foreground those elements of album releases – photography, typography – that have been lost as collateral in the transition from physical releases to streaming.
The resulting album is a lush pop and queer body of work, visually translated into photographs by Dorje de Burgh.
