When artist Aviv Or was asked by friends, Idan and Danielle, to illustrate a poster full of geek culture references, Aviv said, “their request was so detailed and rich with cool geek stuff that I had to take the job or the universe would have imploded around me.”
So Aviv took their concept and did a wonderful job creating Geeky Road, I think you’ll agree.
Clearly based on the Beatles 1969 Abbey Road album cover, but replacing George, Paul, Ringo and John with Darth, Buffy, Hermione and Wesley, the background is chock full of Western pop culture references.
Can you spot them all?
