The colors present on the album are very dull and quite sobering. These colors were intended to represent the emotions of Szymon himself. On the cover he is depicted atop a grey rocky surface, surrounded by a beige border, in front of a robin’s egg blue square. All of these colors fail to catch the eye and do not garner our attention whatsoever due to their general lifelessness. This lack of vibrance of the album artwork shows Szymon’s view of the world during the time he created this album. He created the album, as stated previously, while suffering from depression. According to his brother Kubush, Szymon struggled to complete the masterpiece of an album due to his illness. “When he became unwell, it was harder for him to concentrate and focus on it. His battle with his health, the medicine an treatment as well, made it hard for him.” says Kubush (McCabe). His battle with his illness is symbolized by the pale blue color. This is because sadness is commonly represented by the color blue, and on the cover you can see that the majority of his body is trapped in the blue square. Sadness is consuming him mentally, and on the album artwork, it shows him being physically trapped by it. His depression also made the world seem dull and lackluster to him. It lacked the life and vibrance that it had once possessed, and like a faded photograph, it will never be able to be restored of its color. No matter how hard Szymon tried, he was unable to see things in the way they used to be. His view of the world was forever damaged. The color of his clothing is very symbolic as well. Upon the rocks, Szymon is clothed head to toe in only one color, black. The sweatshirt he is wearing is black, his pants too, as well as his shoes. It is common knowledge that black is almost always be associated with death and sorrow. Unfortunately, death and sorrow happen to be related to depression. Szymon,
