I recently spent a week at the design agency Studio View based in Lincoln. While I was there I was given a project to produce illustrations for songwriting.
I decided to use a collage approach and choose famous songwriters as the basis for them. I chose Ian Curtis and Joy Division, Patti Smith and Robert Smith of The Cure, the collages then became inspired by a song of theirs I felt showcased their songwriting skills best. For Ian Curtis I chose Transmission and the collage shows the industrial style and the idea of telephone wires all connecting together. For Patti Smith I chose Land and the collage shows the imagery of the song, which the horse and the flames and the boy with a butterfly coming from his mouth. For Robert Smith I chose Pictures of You and the collage shows an underwater style, with aqua colours, it consists of an image of a woman floating underwater and then behind it is green card and a piece of scourer, then over this I placed a grey film to give a more murky effect.
