Mark Guiliana, The Sound of Listening
Art Direction · Music · Print · Typography
Created for a meticulously thoughtful album from Drummer and Composer Mark Guiliana, the artwork reflects the negative and positive space of noise and silence — form and space — with the rhythm of the partially-hidden letterforms making the title being created from the interaction and spaces between the two.
The title and idea behind ‘the sound of listening’ is taken from the book ‘Silence’ by Thích Nhất Hạnh, which considers, as Mark explains, ‘the inner silence required to truly observe the world.’


The album artwork was created entirely from a series of hand-printed letterpress prints by Oli Bentley on the People Powered Press.
