Ryan was embarking on the release of his latest solo album, "Undone," a finely-crafted masterpiece that pays homage to 1970s-indie soul Americana. So we jumped in to help with directing a cohesive visual identity spanning from vinyl artwork, website design, and tour materials, plus helping him hit the ground running with a 10 city tour book.

For the creative a combination of illustrations complemented the photography shot by Kaitlin Green. Nakia curated a set of symbols that encapsulate the album's journey. A moon symbolizing the essence of time, a snake representing the release of control and transformation, a plant signifying growth, a heart capturing raw nature, and birds embodying the spirit of journey. Complementing these are sketches of Ryan woven in from the photography. 

A series of posters were created for the tour. These posters featured unique color schemes extracted from the photography, allowing each show to stand out individually.  It was such joy to work with Ryan, a truly remarkable and talented man!
