Artwork for vinyl LP: Ever Vivid — States of Being

Artwork for a double vinyl album in gloss finish gatefold sleeve on Exalt Records.

The first time I listened to this album, before it even had a title, the music gave me images of something broken or smashed. When I found out it was to be called States of Being that idea made even more sense.

I explored imagery around the broken theme and this library image of broken glass gave me the idea to put a person at the centre of it. The fracture lines radiating out from the figure, a suitable metaphor for the music and album concept. Centre labels are dark for the A/B vinyl and light for C/D to reflect the light and shade of life's ups and downs.
