Jonathan Zawada's elemental songs

Jonathan Zawada may not be a name you’re immediately familiar with, but his work has covered the albums of some of your favourite Australian artists. He’s behind every album, single and EP cover from The Presets, designed the iconic album cover for Flume’s second album skin, and has created the visual mood for music by Mark Pritchard, Baauer, Canyons and more. His visual art can be as small as a record cover, as tangible as a side table, or as wearable as high fashion, but in all that he does is an element of Australia in it. Across five songs Jonathan echoed the preconceptions about Australia that many of us feel, the immensity of space we have in our own backyard, the raw Australian tales some of our best contemporary artists tell, and the tangibility of sound.
