Tag: Gong

The cover of Bright Spirit by Gong presents a symmetrical, geometric design set against a deep blue background. At the center, a tall prism splits into bright rainbow beams that extend vertically through the composition. Overlapping translucent circles form a mandala-like pattern around the prism, creating an eye motif with the word “GONG” placed across its center. The album title appears below in spaced white letters.
