David Bromley was a lost soul, until he found that art appeased the voices in his head and let him see beauty in the world again.
Art saved his life – art, and his wife Yuge.
Bromley: Light after Dark is an exploration of pain, love, and creativity. When David Bromley discovered that art appeased the voices in his head, he threw his whole being into the pursuit of bringing beauty to life.
With intimate access to the world of this prominent Australian artist, we peel back the layers of anxiety, phobias, and self-destruction to embrace the humour and energy that lies beneath. The story of David’s journey wouldn’t be complete without his wife Yuge. It’s through this intense partnership that we witness the precariousness of David’s world and his state of mind. We follow the Bromleys as they live their authentic lives, while interviews with friends, critics and musicians add insight on mental health, the creative process, and the commercialisation of art.
Ultimately, this is a love story for the ages and a stirring exploration of life and creativity.
As David himself says, “art saved my life”. But that’s just the beginning of this story…
