Critical and contextual references and influences:

I would like to use Gaudi in my artwork because he has a Major influence in Barcelona with many of his buildings and designs around the city everyone knows who he is in Barcelona and other parts of the world.

His art and designs are a little wierd because some of his designs are past his time, for instance the Sagrada Famila Chappel, the outside is dated and with lots of religious statues, but inside its completly differnt and almost mordern for his time.
