️ …have to add that now with the death of our sweet friend David Graves, whose wife and much-missed Ann died a few years back now, my link to David, Andrew & Chris becomes fainter still, these memories are both hard when we remember them and even harder when we find ourselves struggling to remember them.

Posted @withrepost • @theaidsmemorial — “From around 1987, I photographed artist and poet #DavidRobilliard (1952 – November 3, 1988) at his and boyfriend Andrew Heard’s (1958 -1993) Shoreditch studio in London. I didn’t know Andrew really who also died of AIDS. It was later that I became friends with him and Chris Hall.

David had just started to get sick when I took these. I remember reassuring him that the black and white photograph would lessen the obviousness of his skin which had taken on a raw angry colour. A difficult time, so many complicated memories.” — by Dan Lepard @danlepard
