Ian Hamilton Finlay is a Scottish artist who makes art around words, usually in stone, which I find gives an eternal feel to his art. Like it will survive the test of time and his message will live on. Other pieces of his work is based around imagery with a specific word signified for it, such as his poster like art work with aviation planes and the word Lullaby. I may be influenced by Finlay by instead of making art based on poetry but instead make it based on the actual words and display them in an unusual fashion.
