About

This editorial album cover for Dave’s ‘The Boy Who Played The Harp’ features a series of monochromatic portraits capturing the artist alongside collaborators including James Blake, Kano, and Tems. Shot by photographer Gabriel Moses, the imagery leans into a moody, high-contrast aesthetic that highlights the textures of the subjects' clothing and the intricate details of the classical harp. The project utilizes soft, directional lighting to maintain a low-key atmosphere. With set design by Julia Dias and makeup by Mata Marielle, the production creates a consistent visual narrative through a muted, tactile studio environment.
