Angels of Porn
Cassette Cover & Back
2016-05-18
-This piece is a cassette cover made for the Canadian musician; Nicole Dollanganger. This is a Digital collage of images I took as well as illustrations I had created with this project. It is influenced by the aesthetic of her music as well and the old style of skate 'zines popular in the 1980's. The two background images were both run through Lightroom and Photoshop, the multiple images collaged on the boarder were printed twice, ripped apart, then collaged in using Photoshop once again. The images within the the black/ white collage are to add to the contrast of conventional catholic notions on premarital sex, porn, ect. and the Angelic description of the girls that unwillingly star in these films within this song.

Mixtape/ Album cover graphic

-This piece is a debut mixtape cover for the Canadian musician and dear friend of mine; TimmyFlameBoy. It is an ink illustration I made for the project then placed together in Photoshop. This piece is influenced by Raymond Pettibon's graphic advertisements for bands, primarily; Black Flag, Minutemen, and Sonic Youth. This is a depiction of the musician's childhood home burning down, as well as having corporate malfunctions beheaded and staked in his backyard, almost as trophies. On the cover, there is a set of handcuffs linked to his logo. All of this is being detached from the house, showcasing how he is breaking free of what he was locked to. The vacant cuff alludes to what else he could cling to forever.

-This piece is a promotional ad/ poster for the Canadian musician; TimmyFlameBoy. It was a digital image, warped into a work of graphic posterization and comic adaptation using Illustrator and Photoshop. This piece is of influence of Marvel comics including; The Spectacular Spiderman, The Fantastic Four, and in depth, the villains that corresponded to them accordingly. The abbreviation on the side written in darkened, burnt bones, hint's to the musicians villainous mentality and mantra that follows him. The over 'comic-ized' imagery of the subject and his surroundings is to transcend him, and the viewer six pages deep into a prosperous graphic novel. Behind the subject, the distorted hellish background portrays how he views the world and how the world looks after he is finished with it.

Album Cover

This piece is an album cover for the Canadian musician; TimmyFlameBoy. This is a piece of digital graphic art created using old classified CIA files and illustrations I made for this project all composed using Photoshop. It is influenced by the mind control experiments conducted by the CIA in 1953-1966 then brought to the public in the 1970's. The skull is wearing a mind control contraption often depicted as being used in the experiments. The electric bolt is derivative of the lightning bolt on the Bad Brains debut record which is of heavy influence to TimmyFlameBoy hence it shocking the skull. The documents in reversed colour is to convey the horror of the intent of the experiment as well as illuminate the thought that the CIA could hide this project from the world. The first lines of the middle paragraph read 'Marks release'. TimmyFlameBoy's real name is Mark, and this record was released independently, this is actually part of the file but strategically used indicate his independence and nationality to the public and not a corporation as he defiles in his music.
