#album design
Hey, my name is Maria, I am a photographer based in Russia (that’s why my English is awkward sometimes, I’m not a native speaker). And this is my very moody self portrait, with a package. )
Through over a decade of experience in experimental photography, I always have worked with musicians: I specialize in band photo, concerts, and cover art. I created this profile to make our work together easier for you, people of music. All new artwork listed(and will be listed) in this account is available for purchase to highlight your creative projects.
I haven’t been here for a long time, thank you for your attention to my work after years of silence
If you want to buy some picture, write me on Instagram
I am so happy when my images find their new home, and I hope that you will help me with this.
《蝴蝶的罪恶感》 彩胶 vinyl design for PO8

i’m super psyched to share my work on PO8’s latest physical vinyl, <THE GUILT OF A BUTTERFLY>! i will use english to explain some of my process since my chinese is too rudimentary. ༼ ༎ຶ ෴ ༎ຶ༽ while brainstorming for the design, i became intrigued by the idea of rorschach tests. i dug up my old chinese calligraphy ink and brushes and began steadily painting numerous halves of butterflies on regular printer paper. when i folded the sheets to imprint a mirrored image, i found ink didn’t always transfer thoroughly. but that imperfect quality ended up working really well for the album’s concept and vibe. while listening to the entire tracklist, i spent a while partnering each song with a butterfly i felt suited it (but i won’t go into my idiosyncratic reasoning for each pair lol). after tildawn entertainment saw the initial drafts, they felt it would be a shame to constrain the butterflies within a stapled lyric booklet. so instead, every track’s lyric spread will be included as a folded insert~ it’s so cool! ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و please hang up the butterfly of your favorite track on the wall if you’d like, haha! and the pocket cover is, of course, inspired by butterfly taxidermy displays. i hope PO8 fans will enjoy the design, thank you!!
