MAIKCEL album cover

This project was created for Ambrustic Boy, the new album by artist Maikcel. Each single cover was designed with a unique graphic style that reflects the mood and emotional tone of its corresponding track, while still belonging to a cohesive visual universe.

The series blends a wide range of influences:
Cartoon-inspired linework and stylization, with exaggerated characters and bold outlines.
Urban and street-art aesthetics, with raw textures, graffiti-like typography, and expressive compositions.
Expressionist touches, using dramatic contrasts of light and shadow, intense color palettes, and distorted perspectives to heighten emotion.
Minimalist portraits, focusing on iconic features and symbols that echo Maikcel’s identity.
Each piece explores a different atmosphere, from introspective and melancholic to energetic and playful, echoing the variety of sounds in the album.

Musically, Ambrustic Boy fuses RnB, Pacific rhythms, rap, soul, and ragga, creating an eclectic soundscape that guided the artistic direction. The result is a collection of covers that not only represent each song but also work together as a visual diary of the album’s journey.
