The Shape Of The Earth


(click image to enlarge)

With a title inspired by T.S. Eliot's poem, "The Love Song Of J. Alfred Prufrock" and band members who study neurology and history – the artwork for The Shape of the Earth's new EP simply had to take on an intellectual, academic, artistic and yet somewhat ambiguous nature.

The core concept and color scheme of the space was inspired by a photograph I took while exploring the Richmond Power Plant in Philadelphia. The eye itself brought science and history together, while meshing with the background itself in an homage to the shape of the earth itself.
