Paul McCartney

Overview

Kate Gibb was invited by Lane & Associates to create the silkscreen treatment for Paul McCartney’s new album The Boys of Dungeon Lane, with creative direction by David Lane and Paul McCartney. Working across the cover artwork, collage pull-out, lyrics sheet and portrait, Kate applied her distinctive screen-printing process throughout the album package. Inspired by a street sign from the Liverpool area where McCartney grew up, the cover artwork sits alongside a large-scale collage pull-out constructed from around 40 individual layers of silkscreen, creating a richly tactile final image. The accompanying portrait, photographed by Mary McCartney, was also reworked through layered silkscreen treatments, bringing Kate’s analogue approach and textural visual language to the wider project.
