Marko Èrtanec
Marko Èrtanec, born 1953 in Ljubljana, where he lives
and works today. Continuing a family tradition, he has
been designing and working wood for more than fifteen
years.
Marko Èrtanec's intimate understanding of the wood itself
is reflected in the design and execution of his works.
His work incorporates simple inventiveness, unforced,
a refined impression in space, and always zen-like objectivity.
The wooden objects often have multiple meanings, with
several layers of message as hidden in the material itself
as in a separate and compounded form.
