TREASON

 

Album artwork designed for my senior thesis in 2010 for the progressive hardcore band, Remora. The theme of the album focuses on exposing a web of lies, from which lyrics in the single “Treason” include: “Detains for treason this web of lies I’ve spun...”

The packaging is meant to imitate the qualities of a spider’s web as well as the subtle intricacies of lies: a spider’s web can only be seen when in the right perspective just as a web of lies can only be recognized in proper context.

Random shapes are cut out of individual acetate sheets which make no rational sense until every sheet is assembled, creating the illusion of a web. The entire package is transparent and uses no ink other than on the fan disc, which is also transparent and adds to the impression of an otherwise empty package.
