In May 2022, I was commissioned by Romanian MC Omu Gnom to design the album cover for his latest release "Outrospecție". He sent me some of the unmastered tracks so I could get a grip on the sound and themes he explored on this album. After listening to them a few times, I started sketching some ideas and I got some interesting effects playing with concentric circles, and by altering their stroke width I got a depth-like effect which felt like a good place to start building from, given the (intro)outrospection recurring theme of the tracks. These circles ended up as the artwork for the CD (best seen in the third photo).

I also used the same effect as a base for the lettering and in the end, the cover ended up looking like an old, dusty miniature record sleeve, which Gnom said was spot on.
