The Choice of Becoming —

The Choice of Becoming — Variant I

The Choice of Becoming explores transformation as a ritual act, expressed through a cohesive album identity.

This variant centres on rupture — a moment of division where the body splits and something new emerges. The visual language combines organic distortion, molten textures and symbolic typography to create a system that feels both violent and sacred.

The project extends beyond a single artwork into a full identity: cover design, vinyl packaging and merchandise, all unified through a consistent material and narrative direction.

Developed through a hybrid workflow combining AI generation and detailed compositing in Photoshop, with a focus on lighting realism, texture control and print-ready execution.
