Kozyndan

NEW!! Second season of PUMA x kozyndan now in stores worldwide!

The second season of our line of clothes and shoes with Puma is now in stores worldwide!

US puma online store

Puma online store Europe

It looks to me like the shoes are not in the US online store, which is a bummer, but I think they are available in the physical PUMA stores throughout the US as well as the world.

Like the first season, the designs were handled in house at Puma in London, based on artwork we created for the project.  The second season is based on a panoramic artwork depicting the flooding of Amsterdam!

Magical Properties Tour

The Magical Properties Tour with Daedelus, Nosaj Thing and Jogger is now careening across North America! Be sure to check them out if they are making a stop near you!

We designed this poster for the tour, depicting the musicians as a band of merry warriors setting out on a quest across the wilds of North America.  If you can't make it to one of the shows, you can still purchase the poster in our webshop!

Uprisings Limited Edition Resin Sculpture/ Bookend NOW available!

Munky King asked if we would be interested in doing our bunny wave image in 3 dimensions as a bookend, and we instantly jumped at the chance. We had always wanted to do this, but never really stopped to seriously consider how it would be done. Munky King brought in the amazing sculptor Julie B and she went to work on it. It was not easy, but she made something truly beautiful based on the image. The finished sculpture is being produced next year in vinyl, but next week Munky King is releasing a very limited edition hand painted resin version of the piece.

Hand painted resin.
Limited edition of 10.
Stands 9.5" tall.
$450

The piece is available now. Use it as a bookend or display it alone on your mantle.

Originating from a found photo album unearthed in a Venice Beach thrift shop, kozyndan were inspired to create imagined personae documenting the essence of these lost photographs. This clothbound hardcover is comprised solely of small, detailed graphite portraits, each piece captures the surreal humour and irreverence that has become a trademark of kozyndan's distinctive style of artwork.

Illuminating select portraits are short stories inspired and imagined by a community of artist friends and writers including Pasha Malla, Mark "frosty" McNeill, Ryan Sands, Mariko Tamaki, Maggie MacDonald, Nick Flanagan and Porous Walker.

Hardcover. 8.5 x 8.5 inches.
150 pages. Over 100 illustrations.

Puma x kozyndan in Puma stores worldwide NOW!!

So here is a part of the story. Originally when PUMA asked us to do the PUMA x kozyndan collaboration the line was to be released at all PUMA stores worldwide. Then as the released neared and we were told that in fact it would be a Europe only release. This was disappointing as a great number of our fans are not in Europe at all.

The entire line was release a few months ago in Europe. At about that time however we were contacted by someone from PUMA USA asking for some of the assets from the project so they could make window displays at the PUMA stores here in the US. We were surprised and wondered if maybe the shoes were coming, or if the whole line was coming to the USA or what. We hadn't heard from PUMA about it before.
