Nathan Haines "5 a Day"
Out now is the new album from Nathan Haines "5 A Day".
I designed the artwork for the physical LP and CD release around photographs of Nathan shot by Fredericke Helwig in London.
Frank Yamma - Uncle
Just released on Australian label Wantok is Frank Yamma's new album "Uncle".
Frank is a highly respected Australian artist.
"Regarded by many as one of Australia’s most important Indigenous Songwriters, Yamma’s brutally honest tales of alcohol abuse, cultural degradation, respect for the old law and the importance of country are spine tingling. His ability to cross cultural and musical boundaries constantly sets new standards through his music."
We took care of the graphic design for this project - a digipak with CD booklet.
Bibirosi Album Cover
Artwork for Wantok release "Bibirosi" - a collection of songs from PNG performed by Wailliam Takaku and Pidia Kaur Group.
“Traditionally, arts and ceremony were used to pass on beliefs, morality and codes of behaviour. Ceremonial art was integral to the ordering of society. Stories often used environmental metaphors. Tradition was based on a respect for the environment, a harmonious relationship with it. It was not a hierarchical situation in which the environment was secondary, as is the case in a technological age.
Through music we cross the line between life and death”
– William Takaku
