Basia Bulat

Back in February, I was shortlisted for a competition called The Ffres Awards. It's a student design contest held in Wales (i studied at the University of Wales, Newport) and my class was given a brief to complete in order to submit it to the Awards.

The brief was to redesign album artwork for a singer/songwriter called Basia Bulat, and produce 2 pieces of merchandise.

Because the lyrics were very deep, I chose to create a surrealist scene, with items made up of objects found in the lyrics, turning metaphors into a scene.
Her music was also described as a breath of fresh air, so i made the front cover bleak and depressing so that you'd open up the inside to reveal a happy, sunny scene!
