I have created a small book that is dedicated to the people that have influenced me and made me the artist and designer I am. The people that influence me all the time are artists, designers, illlustrators and many more. This project can refer to my creative family tree. What I wanted to show from this book, is that I am influenced from Jose Parla, Dieter Roth, Jasper Johns and some collage artists. I have used a lot of materials and media in order to create this artwork. I have tried to avoid writing their names and using examples or photos of their work. Instead I have used their techniques and characteristics in order to create the artwork. As a result my final piece will be influenced by them and it will resemble their work.

I have also created a small wooden bookcase for this book. It was first screenprinted with the image I wanted to have on the cover, laser cut the parts and glued everything together. I have also tried to recreate the bookcase by using the 3D printer and created a plastic bookcase using the ABS material so that it will last longer.
