This lead me to look at a modern form of this postwar movement, called graffiti art and how it has already been used in past album covers in order to create a synergistic theme across the 4 panels that albums have.
For example, below, Ed Sheeran and Neon Jungle have used the graffiti art style as the concepts for their album covers. However this only stays true for their front panel and not their other panels.

| Neon Jungle "Louder" Album- they also focused their font style on the urban nature of graffiti |
Graffiti remains one of the four hip-hop elements that is not considered "performance art"despite the image of "the singing and dancing star" that sells hip hop culture to the mainstream. I thought this type of art would be good in portraying the dance genre of my artist, if my group was to create an artist based on dance music like I proposed I wanted to do earlier.
The fashion of the romantic era (Romanticism), a movement in art, literature and music that valued freedom of expression where the ideal woman was seen as "an angel of the household"- virtuous, wholesome and genteel. This concept of "angel", which was replicated in the dressing back then is one which I envisioned a female artist wearing while singing one of my song choices, "W.A.Y.S" by Jhene Aiko, which I mentioned earlier. This is because it would bring an ethereal feel to the song, similar to Avril Lavigne's "When you're gone"

Street culture also influenced me, in reference to if my group was to decide to do a dance/pop song and artist. K-pop culture, has a strong street fashion look and so most of my influences on outfit styles came from K-pop groups such as "2NE1" and "Girls Generation".
