The first thing would be to design the artistic motif (a conceptual image
that will describe CentOS 8 major release). Then spread it through all
visual manifestations (anaconda, backgrounds, etc.) so to reach a
consistent and unified visual identity along all of them. This designing
process may take a while. Could the community throw out some words,
sentences, or concepts for artists to get engaged with, or just start
playing with Inkscape and Gimp to see what goes out. It would be nice to
see the work progress somewhere public (e.g.,
https://wiki.centos.org/ArtWork/Motifs).

Additionally, we will need to update some of the assets listed here:
> https://wiki.centos.org/ArtWork/Identity


What would be the assets to update?

... and produce new assets for 8 to be listed here:
> https://wiki.centos.org/ArtWork/Brand/Logo


What would be the new assets to produce?

And, finally, we need someone to step up to lead this effort.

I propose the person who most visible work shares (not me, of course). I
may not dedicate as much time as I would like to, but definitely shall be
around giving a hand to other community members.

Indeed.
