I am happy to show you the new Coverart for @FRIEDEMANN´s 2019 Live-Album "Mehr Sein Als Schein" that will released on Exile on Mainstream Records in October.

The motive refers to the album title, which works as a word-play on the basis of the german expression "Mehr Schein als Sein", meaning "making an impression to be more than you actually are" - posing. FRIEDEMANN inverted that saying, demanding an act of liberation to "BE instead of APPEAR TO BE".
The mask has to come off, and is put on a nail in the wall - also this being a german expression, meaning "to quit something", to leave something behind.

It´s my fifth design for the man, and it´s always a challange and truly inspiring to work with him. I find much of what i am looking for also in his lyrics - raw, simple expression, with a connection to the soul as straight as possible.

Logodesign for german illustrator Robert Lefold´s company "Teilchensturm". In this logo i wanted to illustrate the matter of various techniques fusing together into one final piece. Single parts becoming one, definite, illustration. I feel in the conclusion of an illustration, PIECE (=Teilchen) of art, whatever you may call it, there lies the objective to open up space for imagination and inspiration, same as to the beholder and to the artists themselves. To evolve, to learn, to see...therefore, stands the eye, that grows from the coming together of things - and that breaks the circle.
