Eske Rex

About this book

Based in Copenhagen, designer Eske Rex draws inspiration from machines. Perhaps best known for his 'drawing machine', a construction powered by weights and pendulums that produces spirograph ink drawings, he aims for a simple and poetic expression, seeking to connect with his audience on a sensory rather than intellectual level. His primary medium is wood, and he has developed an approach that brings together architecture, design, art, and craft in sculptures and installations which often involve natural processes such as motion and friction. This impressive monograph comprises three sections: sculpture works, texts and travel registrations, and installation works.
