<Indigo Redesign>
2023, S.I. Procreate, Adobe Illustrator.
While listening to Chris Brown’s album “Indigo” the album cover had always bothered me. The design is too chaotic and there’s too much to look at. I redesigned the album cover to appear more visually pleasing, using the shades of the color Indigo to match the name of the album. I then created clothing based off my redesign to add a merchandise section in Chris Brown’s Spotify page. The designs are based off of Chris Brown's monster murals that can be spotted in the streets of Los Angeles. I implicated these designs into the album cover and the merchandise that can be found in the Spotify store.
<Taxi>
2022, Acrylic on Canvas
​90 x 90 (cm)
Even while being driven on familiar roads I stay hostile. With a stranger that holds control of the taxi, I feel unsafe and stuck. To display this I used a dark, greenish color palette to produce this eerie feeling. The driver’s face isn’t visible; he has no identity.
<Igor Redesign>
2025, Adobe Illustrator.
This was actually supposed to be for a class project, where I take images from an archive and put together a design. I originally made the collage using Tyler the Creator's collection of watches, cars, jewelry and bikes, but I had the idea to recolor them, to fit the theme of one of his most iconic albums, "Igor". I ended up creating a redesign for the album.
