Collected Poems Volume 1
Vision Edition
Vision Edition are delighted to introduce the inaugural volume in a new series dedicated to the poetic works of composers. We are particularly honoured to launch this series with the poems of Marc Yeats, a composer, painter, and author of remarkable depth and versatility.
Following the success of his recent publication Music, Painting, Landscape and Me, which explored Yeats’s introspective journey through music and painting, this new book, Collected Poems Volume 1, presents a compelling collection of poems written between 2005 and 2024. In these verses, Yeats ventures into uncharted territory, expressing the complex emotions and insights derived from the dynamic energy and delicate fragility of his art. He delves into the profound personal impacts of being a multi-talented artist, offering readers an intimate glimpse into the creative process, so that “we may confront the unsuspecting with the truth of our new reality.”
The poems are rich with reflections, capturing a wide array of experiences and emotions, ranging from memories, loss, and introspection to sensory responses and the inner turmoil of an artist constantly questioning and re-examining his craft. Often revisiting similar themes, Yeats’s poems offer varied perspectives on recurring ideas, exploring them from different angles to deepen his understanding and to engage readers in this ongoing journey of artistic exploration. Intensely focused and profoundly reflective, these works reveal a relentless pursuit of meaning and expression, making Collected Poems Volume 1 a powerful testament to the enduring spirit of creativity.

Music, Painting, Landscape and Me
Vision Edition
We are thrilled to announce the publication of ‘Music, Painting, Landscape, and Me’ by Marc Yeats. Release date is 1st April 2024. In this book, Marc Yeats embarks on an introspective journey, weaving together the symbolic realms of music and painting through the written word. This endeavour expands upon the immediacy of engagement with his compositions and paintings and what these artworks tell us, offering further understanding and dialogue concerning their interrelation. Yeats’s transformation of his inquiries and insights into text emerges from a conviction that the foundational questions—the ‘whys’ and ‘hows’ of being an artist and his creative exploration—resonate far beyond the confines of his personal experience, reaching out to a wider community of artists and those intrigued by the mechanisms of artistic expression.
