Max Eastley

Welcome to the Max Eastley Archive

Max Eastley is an internationally recognised artist who combines kinetic sculpture and sound into a unique art form. His sculptures exist on the border between the natural environment and human intervention and use the driving forces of electricity, wind, water and ice. He has exhibited both interior and exterior works internationally.

He is well known as an improvising musician. He plays the Arc, a 2 metre long electroacoustic monochord that he developed from an Aeolian harp in the 1970s, together with other small instruments. He has played many solo concerts, some in combination with interior and exterior installations, and with numerous other musicians and groups.
