SANTA FE, N.M.,
July 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/
-- Santa Fe University of Art and Design (SFUAD) Graphic
Design and Digital Arts Department contributing faculty member
Luke Dorman was awarded Best
Packaging Design at the New Mexico Music Awards in June
for the album cover he designed for David Berkeley's
"Cardboard Boat."
Dorman, who is also a 2003 BFA in Studio Arts graduate, worked
collaboratively with Berkeley to design not only the album art, but
also the art for the accompanying book, "The Free Brontosaurus"
(Rare Bird Books, 2015), a novella with 10 short stories about
characters who are also represented by a song on "Cardboard
Boat."
His work with Berkeley was highly collaborative, Dorman
said.
"The work we did on the character design fed the work we did on
the album art and vice versa. We had to give each piece its own
identity, but also allow them to have very clear and overt overlaps
in stylistic and thematic content. It was a very open and organic
process that doesn't come along often enough professional practice.
Not only was the experience itself rewarding, but the work we
created as a result felt deeply personal for both of us, which made
this recent recognition by the New Mexico Music Awards all the more
meaningful."
