Emil Kozak - Barcelona

Emil Kozak is from a small town in Denmark, and was inspired to take on graphic design as a result of his life long passion for skateboarding. He began at an early age to develop his skills, inspired by skateboard-art and album covers. Growing up in Denmark, the long tradition of scandinavian functional minimalism, is inevitable and the result today is a unique artist with brilliant ideas running a studio, a clothing/surfing brand and exhibiting in art-galleries all over the world.

He is motivated by a simple goal that resonates throughout his work:
”I hope that my work can remind us that imagination can defy gravity and bend time. It is our own responsibility to enjoy every second of the day. Nobody else can do that for us. Have fun, do what you love, love what you do. We might get thrown off this spinning ball of iron and mantle tomorrow.”

He currently lives and works in Barcelona.

City-beach with very different atmospheres, depending on the season. In the summer its crowded and full of people sun-bathing, partying, rollerblading, swimming etc. But in the winter it can be a wonderful quiet place.
