power corruption
and liers
The cover is a reproduction of Fantin-Latour's painting Basket of Roses, which has been part of the permanent collection of the National Gallery in London for decades.
Savile realised what a great idea this was. And he said that flowers "tell us how power, corruption and lies infiltrate our lives.
They are seductive." The cover was also designed to create a contrast between the romantic image and modular typography.
true faith
This is by far the most serene artwork Saville has ever created.
"I was parking the car one night, and a leaf slowly flew past the window, and I thought it was so beautiful. It was in the frame of the windscreen, so I probably saw it as an image. So we made a sheet."
It was the first real-life job I ever had. In 1986, I had a trauma in my personal life, and it made me very attentive to the world around me. Suddenly I had no filters.
