Codie Young in “In a Silent Way” by Tim Walker for Vogue Italia, October 2014

Codie Young captures our imagination ‘In a Silent Way’ a story visualized by Tim Walker for Vogue Italia, October 2014. Walker breaks through the walls of wonder in this exquisite piece of avant-garde artistry. The bedlam of beauty wreaks havoc on my mind, as I reach out to find you’ve met my fallen pride. Anguished agony encapsulated in evocative imagery, fashion takes a backseat, as body parts play the role of modern art. A figurative future calls us forth, in this architectural asylum of intellectual wreckage. The power of freedom pillages through the passages of time, as each shot gets us closer to the truth.

 The Pain of Living… 

the darkness of decadence

the anger of light

as I wait for the end

of this ever long night,

the prism of panic

the silence of tears

the mania of searching

for all the lost years,

I wake up to yearning

fall asleep to ignore

call out in deep anguish

when there isn’t much more,

I seek for the laughter

that held me through pain,

a slow moving dream

on a fast moving train,

the passage of peace

doesn’t mean

that we’ll drown

in a lake filled with love

when there’s no-one around.
