Hex: Through my hands I see
For Hex (b. 1964), found steel objects are often the basic material for his abstract sculptures. With the help of welding equipment, angle grinder, hammer, and polishing machine, he creates beautifully shaped and extremely impressive works of art—sometimes small and sometimes monumental. Today, works by him can be found in collections as well as in public places worldwide. This book provides an overview of his works from the last 10 years.
Hex saw himself as a sculptor at a young age and sold his first sculpture when he was only 25. Successful exhibitions and scholarships followed, taking Hex to work in Italy, England, Namibia, the USA, and Canada, among other places. He was admitted to the prestigious Royal Society of Sculptors and, in addition to steel, explored other materials such as marble and bronze.
With large-format illustrations, Hex: Through My Hands I See introduces the versatile oeuvre of this award-winning artist.
