A meditation forty-nine poems long on love that combines creative flights within the confines of a haiku-like discipline. Every poem comprises just 49 syllables, with seven syllables on each of seven lines. This formal rigour provides a skeleton on which a filigree of feelings, thoughts and discursive world-play can be wrapped.

The other title is a meditation on life: 49 Syllables on Life. The texts are accompanied by Tom Ang's atmospheric high-key images in which light itself is the subject.…mehr
