The concept for Omina was to create art and world build with the intention of producing a board game. This meant creating art with illustration in mind and keeping potential game mechanics relevant. The world I explored was meant to go big on contrast. The main contrast displayed is that of familiar landscapes and the warping visuals of anomalies. Everything else is in service of that core idea.
