About

Manuel Sepulveda is a London-based graphic artist and fictions designer. Since 2008 he has worked under the name Optigram, and an ‘optical grammar’ of abstraction, camouflage, geometry, and science fiction has defined his studio output.

For over 10 years he has been closely associated with Hyperdub, creating much of that record label’s artwork, and in 2020 his album sleeves for the label were exhibited at London’s Design Museum. He has also worked with several other influential record labels such as Rephlex, Warp and Planet Mu, and has visualised music for Unsound, Bleep and Sonos, amongst others. A retrospective of his print and animation work is to be shown at Frankfurt’s Museum of Modern Electronic Music.

Commissions beyond the record industry have included book covers, textile prints, visual identities, kinetic art pieces, multi-sensory installations, and experimental animation.

Embracing all fields, enquiries about potential collaborations are welcomed.
