In the book Jos sinulla olisi kanan aivot (Free translation: If you had the brain of a chicken), experienced neuroscientist Riitta Hari addresses questions related to the human brain in a fascinating and easy-to-understand way.
Hari asked me to make 10 engaging and stimulating illustrations for the book. She didn't want the illustrations to be scientific. The illustrations are supposed to provoke thoughts and questions about the topic at hand.
In addition to the illustrations, I also designed the cover of the book. The idea of the cover illustration is to highlight the fact how our mind and motor control are connected.
The book will be published by Gaudeamus in spring 2025. The illustration of the book is supported by Norman Loveless Memorial Fund.
