Mikko Sarvanne Garden: Heräämisen valkea myrsky
2022



Composer and multi-instrumentalist Mikko Sarvanne's  group, Mikko Sarvanne Garden, transports the listener to an alternate reality: a garden where waves of contemporary vocal music echo together.  
The group’s début album Heräämisen valkea myrsky (The white storm of awakening)  is based on the poetry collection of the same name by Finnish poet Erkka Filander (Poesia 2013). 

The aim was to create visuals for the LP that reflect the compositions’ flourishing sounds and overlapping voices. I modified the photographs, originally taken by Kalle-Erik Kosonen, to create a dream-like scene of the imaginary garden in another dimension. The modified images are accompanied by simple typography, bright yellow and orange colors, and a blossoming letter E in the backside of the record.
