hidjama CD packaging for luxembourgish Death-metal band Exinferis. The name "hidjama" and concept are taken from a middle-eastern procedure for blood-cleansing. Since the name does describe a procedure that involves blood, it was pretty much a given to incorporate it in the design, but I wanted to stay away from the clichéd approach and instead create something a lot more subtle that wouldn't immediately give out the genre of the CD. I aimed for something that might look a bit mystical, giving the impression of a religious ritual. The design was then printed onto a special digipack case.
