WE NEED TO TALK
ART DIRECTION BY MAX WILSON
In collaboration with BRIO
Brio and I worked together to produce a 3 part advertisement for his upcoming deluxe album entitled We Need To Talk. The project itself was my debut in New York City.
The focus of We Need To Talk. is bringing light to the conversation between the heart and the mind. This can be dissected into 3 major points of breakthrough. Solitude, Chaos, and Intimacy - Brio
Act I:Solitude
In Solitude, we focus on self reflection, bringing light to our inner thoughts, voice and power, letting the conversation begin to form back to its natural place. This is also where we become the most vulnerable and honest with ourselves, conversing with our own heart and mind - Brio
Act II: Chaos
In Chaos/Distraction, we find ourselves overcrowded and overpowered by our inner voices, thoughts + perceptions. We become victim to our own mind + hearts power, losing a piece of ourselves in the process of “trying” to weed out the internal noise. This feeling is common on the journey of self-mastery, where we must question ourselves to be reminded of the true power + potential that lies on the other side of our perception - Brio
Act III: Intimacy
In Intimacy, we find ourselves in the divine state of being, in unity + harmony with one’s heart + mind; the magnum opus of We Need To Talk’s overall message. We share intimacy with self + become gentle with ourselves, allowing the conversation to blossom within our being + manifest into true oneness. This is not the final destination of grace but does showcase the divine essence that we are innately reaching towards. The counterparts in this Act represents the Masculine/Feminine ie. the Left/Right brains when one reaches this state of harmony within - Brio
