作者介紹

作者介紹 Rex KooBorn and raised in Hong Kong, Rex Koo has been working in graphic design for more than a decade, but his true passion lies in art, music, and movies – where he combines his unique perspectives with bold visual expressions. Rex believes that where design can sometimes be ‘cold, rational and calculative’, paintings can conversely be ‘irrational and unrestrained’ due to their devotion to feelings.
