Two fave pieces for the latest Friends of Chamber Music campaign. The one on the left is part of the CoV bus shelter ad program while the one on the right is for Vancouver Civic Theatres. Grateful for these programs and it's nice to see things on a decent scale!

This was a fun, last-minute project...just in time for X-mas and it involved figurines, mini trees, fake snow and the real trees I look out to from my living room! I enjoy doing these mock up shoots and have even been nominated for awards for my miniature tabeletop photos (three times at the Western Magazine Awards) So if you have an idea for something like this, don't assume my work is all texture and colour and atmosphere!

A favourite recent cover for the simple reason that, visually, I feel it echoes the time we are in with all its anxiety blended with occasional flashes of beauty, and, when you hear the lead piece on the CD it seems, to me (and others thankfully!), a perfect reflection of the sounds!

And, as always, feel free to contact me for prints.

"Mark Mushet's posters are fascinating. He has an ability to capture the subject of the event through beautiful and subtle imagery. The effectiveness of his work is that it's bright, bold and impactful, noticed up close and seen clearly from a distance. He uses micro imagery to create art that is both abstract and representative of the subject matter. This subtlety invites introspection and wonder, captivating people."

Occasionally I am reminded to post more of my portraits of people. This was originally done for Suzie Le Blanc and Early Music Vancouver but with a clear eye towards editorial use by cultural sector publications. And herewith...

One of the tougher things to get right when it comes to music packaging/design is visually representing really REALLY complex, abstract music in a roughly 12cm square space.

Working with Manuella Blackburn on her last two releases has seen, I think, two of the more successful attempts at creating an impactful image at scale that somehow touches on the themes/techniques employed during the creation of the music.

For computer music that uses tiny fragments of close mic recordings of different "non musical" materials/elements to build engaging musical forms, the trick is to go neither literal/representational nor too obscure. And then it's usually for a *collection* of tracks created over a few years.

So with the latest one I was given the title and decided to focus on the themes of two pieces; one literally created from the sounds of microplastics in the environment and another sourced from the constituent parts of the famous but now obsolete Fairlight synth.

The palette is intended to evoke plastics (have a look at some online documentation of plastics found at sea for example, with reds, blues and oranges being commonplace) and a set of blended vertical columns that might suggest both a built form, and an audio waveform. At least that was the thinking. Your mileage may vary!

Manuella was given a set of options but really pushed me to develop this one and I'm glad she did. Once again thanks to Manuella, Mantis Manchester, and Jean-François Denis for everything they do!

New suite of posters for Friends of Chamber Music. Six more to come. Also coming soon is a whole raft of photos from the last year that I haven't had time to edit for posting here. Hope you're all well!
