Object Compendium [Hardcover] Eng, Kilian

Object Compendium collects all three sold-out volumes of Kilian Eng's acclaimed monograph series, Object 5, Object 10 and Object 15. Kilian's images present alternate worlds where the environment plays a great role. Many of these sequences present visual stories, without any text. He is fascinated with the details that can create these imaginative worlds: colors and lighting; dimensions and sounds. His inspiration comes from classic and futuristic architecture, surrealism, and science fiction as well as natural and urban landscapes. "Since most of the work in the book has been drawn in the computer environment I was glad and surprised how the images opened up in a new way when I saw them in the printed form. There is definitely something happening when you can see the work on paper instead of on the screen. It is really the ultimate way to look and get to know the artwork." —Kilian Eng Kilian Eng is one of the most popular and acclaimed digital illustrators working today.
