Polychordal's album cover was created by our dear friends - Canon.
"Canon is a plural creative, wife, & dog parent living in the USA.
they presently spend their days serving the LGBT community, listening to music, creating, & working together as a system to heal & harmonize. Canon is usually thinking about the sun."
Canon can be found at @crewcompartment on Instagram.
Their commissions are selectively open.
"While illustration can flow from a fount for us, design must be drawn from different pools of knowledge within, which felt fitting as we approached the project. We connected with the music before and during the process. The color scheme is modeled loosely on colors we perceived while experiencing synesthesia (blue and yellow moods). The music’s intimacy is married to the vastness of a sky, populated by moving clouds. A rainbow with distinct layers is united in a spiral, leading into -- or rising from -- the core. This cover aims to thoughtfully mirror the album’s comparison and contrast between individual experiences within the whole, and between navigating an internal expanse within an "outside" world. As a system and as friends, it has been an honor, pleasure, and connective experience (inside and out) to work on this album art."
"The front must be shared with
late-flowering companions
and their containers.
Color is coming from all quarters.
Expectations must be realistic."
"It's just an open sea. I can control what's happening under the water."
"You wore me
like the sun
wore the very first dawn."
