The design is inspired by my first album, “Half Moon,” which I wrote, sang, and produced during quarantine. I was inspired by the half-moon because it isn’t spoken about or used as a symbol often, and I found it a good example of being half empty/half full. In the design, it’s used as a motif in the slip stitch colorwork, surrounded by “rays of moonlight” in corrugated rib.
