Album cover and animated artwork created for music album Athena by Hylas.

Hylas is an instrumental progressive post rock band based in Athens. The artwork for their debut album “Athena” is inspired by the city of Athens and follows a fictional character, Hylas, in his wanderings across the city. The artwork vibes are those of an almost dystopic place, dirty yet wonderous, balancing between ramshackle graffity-painted buildings and bitter orange trees on the sidewalks. Each of the five settings corresponds to a different track in the album, and depicts a real location in Athens: Alexandras Avenue, a road in Exarcheia, the Metro, an athenian apartment and a public swimming pool. The visuals are still images with selected elements in motion, constantly playing in a loop.
