July 24th 2008| Our work for Danish tikibar INTOXICA is featured in world famous online magazone LuxuryCulture.com - yay!




July 8th 2008| A new mens clothing shop is opening in Copenhagen on August 16th. We helped with a small website and flyer illustrations. The shop offers great brands with emphasis on natural materials and a relaxed view on fashion classics.

Feb14th 2008| Brand stickers: our label Woven Flesh is in good company among other labels on the front windows of a nice store in the main shopping street of Copenhagen.



Feb 6th 2008| It's Copenhagen Fashion Week now, and we are doing ours to stay away as much as possible from the icky cheek kissing.
However, shooting a lookbook for the Woven Flesh Summer 08 collection "Navigator" is just pure fun. We went sailing last fall to shoot the first set, and last Sunday we took the last of the pictures with models in 2 degrees Celcius. One of the models got butt-naked and local fishermen yelled and laughed. Why that always happens during our photoshoots is a mystery. Poor models.



Jan 22nd 2008| A series of book illustrations for Politikens Forlag in the works. Featuring bi-curious villains, old zeppeliners and a slimy monster from deep space with identity issues. Out this summer.



Jan 11th 2008| We´re in London researching and meeting people before engaging in a new fun project. Pictures contain a shopful of delicious cakes - and Anders from VY & the very talented Anjy from Cheeky T pretty boozed up in a bar underneath the Hilton Hotel.



Dec 31st 2007| This is the end of 2007, quite a horrible year in many aspects. And a wonderful one in others. We've been doing so many fun projects - interiors for bars and shops, a book, lots of clothes and prints, TV-spots, a painting exhibition, jewellery and magazine articles. Next year is going to be even more fun - a new Woven Flesh webshop, three 1206 collections, four WF collections and also real clothes, stationary, trips to Tokyo and London, two Oline kids books and some projects that are still really secret but also worth waiting for....
Thank you to all friends, foes.. and lovers. XXX from Venom Yum ^_^

Oct 6th 2007| Today was the day our first painting exhibition Endless Fall ended. It has been such a great experience - with old friends and new friends coming along, buying and visting the collection. More than 102 paintings out of 150 were sold in 5 weeks - most of them were bought from people we've never met. It's a really weird feeling - that strangers buy a piece of our ideas and imagination and hang them on their wall at home... We hope that everyone will be happy with their purchase - thank you for joining Endless Fall.
