Provocation, rebellion and melodramatic feelings: these are the lines our Sweden Robert Ek is creating through his works.

All we can see are stereotypes sharing a minimalistic view with aesthetic research, like the “Keep scrolling” motion graphic which shows an Iphone twice bigger than the person who is using it (so who is using who?) or maybe we can also name the “sushi daydreamin’’, which is definitely a tribute to people obsessions for ‘fashionfood’ like sushi: all this implicit riot lands us to an infinite eye – orgasm.
