Inspiration from the Russian Avant Garde

 I have the album 'The Man-Machine' by Kraftwerk, and was intrigued by the art on the back cover. Turns out is part of an artpiece by El Lissitzky. I particularly like the usage of simple geometric shapes to create a strange arrangement. It kind of reminds me of (IKEA) assembly diagrams!

I then shot my own photograph with various objects aligned in straight lines, and in Photoshop, I added the lines and colour.
