elohim אלהים — refers to the monotheistic creator god, or to the god of israel, yahweh

i had never heard of elohim prior to this assignment so my process began with learning about her. she’s an electropop artist, dj and song-writer based in LA. she started playing the piano and making music at age 5. suffering from severe anxiety, she turned to music for grounding. she says the name elohim, which one of the hebrew names for god, brought her strength and moved her in a profound way.

her instagram, music videos and website (merch site too) provided a lot of inspiration. everything is black with white lettering and eyes are everywhere. google says ‘elohim’ can also mean ‘deity’, so i looked at ancient art of deities, particularly their eyes. i wanted everything to look electronic and glitchy but with intention, since elohim is godly.

created on procreate.
