Build/Flying Lotus

This album artwork caught my eye whilst browsing through the new Warp site. The record sleeves are designed by Build and are an intriguing abstract series featuring torn and stretched man made material. The photographs (taken by Timothy Saccenti) are actually of latex sculptures created by Commonwealth (USA). Black and white photography is always powerful and these sleeves have a dark apocalyptic aesthetic to them. They partly remind me of the anti smoking campaigns of the late 80s early 90s showing the tar built up in a smokers lungs. An accomplished body of work.
