VISUALS

This is where the music meets the eye - exploring the graphic worlds that gave funk its visual identity. Album covers weren’t just packaging - they were mood boards, message posters, neon dreams.

Here, you’ll find funk-inspired visuals, proto-funk aesthetics, and the lingering effect of funk across decades of design - from bold typography to surreal illustrations. The spotlight is on the designers, typographers, photographers, and illustrators whose art told stories before the needle ever dropped.
