....something that i kept reminding to myself. (i dun consider it as an artwork. i used mouse instead of tablet..im that poor)..yeah..poor little me, sumthing just not happening to me...or is it not gonna happen to me at all. hmmm..just holding tight to dreams that never end :)
I know that I've done you wrong But you're hard to please When your faith is gone And when you can't believe I'm on my hands and knees
I've given all of me And you crave for more Weird how this makes us feel Insecure
its the junk of the hearts the artwork above got nothing to do with the lyrics of the song. just that, after i finished the artwork above..it looked like a compilation of junks, metal junks..suddenly i could hear nina's voice inside my head..(the cardigans: Junk of the hearts..Gran Turismo is one of my all time favourite). to be honest, i tried to do a remake of S&M artwork, tried to see it from different angle....but i guess i failed to do so. but my opinion, the final's not so bad, eh?
i have this idea of potraying supermodel as the hardest job out there. we always see them as perfect, pretty, rich, famous, talented (e.g; carla bruni and milla jovovich),smart(some of them..really!)..and they always look happy..(in magazine) and with their arrogant/confident looks on the runway..seems like theyre living a better life compare to others.my artwork speaks otherwise. it potrays the other side of life as a supermodel. ..tortured life!..painful!
this album is available for free download...so i made the casing all by myself... just feel proud for the fact that some people do appreciates my design and wanted it to be on their single's sleeve. before this i did 3-4 unknown local artist (i use 'unknown' term because they are not popular yet..and it was just a demo album)..but for this album, it has the extra special feeling coz i love their music.
i realized that i did a lot of dvd sleeve design..so starting from today i'll be posting my selected/favourite dvd sleeve design that ive made.first, my company's profile. i guess this is my all time favourite (masuk bakul angkat sendiri..hahahah..peduli apa?)
this series of artworks reflects of whats going on in my life at that time. there was a time when i listen a lot to john frusciante's niandra ladesand usually just a t-shirt (yes..a lot!maybe too much..i still listen to it...its a great album!) and its like i can feel that im sharing the same sadness with him..and to see life under the same light...yes, im a weirdo. anyways, i can describe the artwork as how im going to leave all the past behind and look forward to a better future..and to be able to dream and dream and dream...life is beautiful indeed.:)...(just to see his smile...i know one day i can put the same smile on me too.)
the album that changed ME. signed by the man himself :)
gahimran is a local artist. he approached me to do his single album's artwork. well he rejected my first idea...but.. satisfied with the second idea...good luck gahimran!
i did it for fun. right always in the middle is one of my friend's blog.(mio amico=my friend). if u love to experiment with new music, u should visit his blog (i'm not sure whether he still active 'blogging'..coz he's currently busy with his group's new/debut album).he has a good taste in music....for sure.
legami is a title of one fabryka's new song that i love. legami means ties in italiano. i cant explain more bout this artwork...a connection between two things, two persons in a very abstract way....simple as that.
i always think that the song human behaviour by bjork describes female's behaviour more rather than male's.(terribly,terribly,terribly moody.....then all of sudden turn happy) :)...dont u think so? well in this series, i did sumthing graphically that describe how beautiful a girl in a happy mood :) (less moody) why happy as a girl in a magazine...simply, all the models always looks happy,dont they?..(btw, its a line in one of rhcp's song)
('the old stuff'- for those who doesnt have myspace account, and for those who is lazy to browse myspace :P)
the artwork that fabryka interested to use for the cover of their single album artwork. i did some changes for that, later i'll post the final artwork that i gave to them...as for now..just the original. good news, the album is available for free download at dharmasound.com, eventho at first the netlabel wants to sell it. go and download it urself, handful of dust is one of my favourite song (to be frank, all of their songs are my favourite!:P)...and plus theres one track remixed by acidhead. tell u, this guy makes cool music. what a privilege to work with ur favourite band, eh?
looked like im promoting this band too much eh?...im just promoting good musics.
it would be a pleasure to work with victoria's secret or la senza (yes.. i know, i wont get the chance to meet alessandra ambrosio or adriana lima..unless im a photographer, unfortunately im not) but to work in fashion line is something that i dream of..
an old stuff...it was during the 'trial' period...trying to convince them..that they have the right designer in me..:) a girl with a beautiful voice... her bandmate said to me..she can do kazu makino's voice... oh tiziana, i never mentioned to you...that i love ur vocal when u had the flu sometimes ago...u made 'butterfly effect(italian version)' sounds really sad...which is cool!
this artwork is all about a girl looking to the future...where all the good things are waiting for her...and leaving all the pain behind... photographer: damiano cerrone the girl i havent met: tiziana
mi piace vivere in silenzio...:P lack of updates eh?..the thing is..i have a lots of artworks that need to be converted to jpeg..but im too busy to do it. in the mean time, u can check some old stuff at myspace(its in the blog section).I'll post as soon as i finish with the work that im doing now.
currently, im working on fabryka's album artwork...i can say its 60% complete. the album will come out this summer...i guess so..(i assure u its gonna be a great album as i said earlier..theyre very talented ).....so as u can see..i cant release the artwork just yet..need to wait for their official release...but soon i'll post the latest work that i did for them..for the release of their single...so keep on checking this place..
oopss..talking of great album.... the upcoming releases(the list): 1)Blonde Redhead: 23 (10th April) 2)Nine Inch Nails: Year Zero (17th April) 2)Flunk: Personal Stereo (23rd April) 4)Bjork!!: Volta (7th May)
In supporting the release of this single, i did sumthing like "web-flyer" or banner for this talented italian band. You can only buy this album online at dharmasound.com. The concept/theme is more like the album artwork, but i did some changes..to show it from "different angle.....under different lights..so we hopefully kind of see it almost for the first time" - maynard james keenan
