Collaborator: Rain Leng
Year: 2023
This album is a collaborative project with Rain Leng, where we co-wrote the two songs featured in it. From the start, we were aware of our differing musical tastes, which naturally led to two distinct songs. We embraced this contrast, using it as an opportunity to explore the concept of duality—focusing on the different facets of one’s personality. This theme is expressed through the front cover design, which features a pocket allowing viewers to change the fish head illustration. The fish appears dynamic and vibrant on the exterior, but as the packaging is opened, its inner world is revealed to be hollow and chaotic, symbolizing hidden layers of personality. We experimented with various folding techniques before finalizing the current design, which adds depth and interaction to the packaging. It highlights the duality concept further by revealing the contrasting characteristics of the fish on the record storage page. Additionally, the vinyl itself has no stickers, allowing the fish head beneath to remain visible. This creates an element of discovery for the viewer as they uncover the hidden aspects of the fish while opening the package.
