BRIEF

BRIEF

The objective of this university brief was to reimagine the visual identity for an existing vinyl release. The challenge lay in translating the band's complex sociopolitical themes and their unique "wall of sound" into a physical package. The design needed to resonate with the heavy, immersive nature of the audio while maintaining a sophisticated aesthetic suitable for a contemporary vinyl market.

Design

The visual identity is built upon a series of watercolour experiments, scanned and digitised to represent the dissolution of colonial structures. This organic process mirrors the band’s intent to break down rigid, oppressive systems, creating fluid textures that bleed and shift across the album sleeve. A distorted serif typeface and a central geodic motif symbolise a core of Indigenous resistance emerging from the atmospheric wall of sound created by the artwork's layered textures.
