This is just the start, Eli Beke | WAMCAST #0087
Description
Our Australia trip continued through Geelong and Ashmore, stumbling across Ashmore Arts.
We have 3 cracking podcasts to bring you from here.
The third of those is Eli Beke who is the maker behind 'Wedge & Edge"
Join us on this episode as we find out the journey of Eli Beke, a self-taught craftsman whose style is influenced by Swedish and Japanese carved household objects. Beke combines wood carving, modern metal fabrication, and timber joinery techniques to create objects that are not only beautiful but also functional. Drawing on his background as an electrical engineer, Beke brings a practical perspective to his craft, enhancing the functionality and aesthetics of each piece. His extensive travels by bicycle across Asia in his 20s have also left a profound impact on his work, enriching his designs with a blend of cultural influences and a deep appreciation for craftsmanship
