Since 2018 he has re-launched his
eponymous brand on a conceptual
image level with ongoing support from
the DANISH ARTS FOUNDATION,
resulting in two new design trilogies
and yearly fashion films showcased
in fashion weeks and film festivals in
London, Paris, Copenhagen, Tokyo,
Seoul, New York, and Los Angeles. As
creative director for ARTSTHREAD, he
launched the first ever GLOBAL DESIGN
GRADUATE SHOW at the outbreak
of the pandemic for all postgraduates
in art and design in partnership with
i-D / VICE Media and GUCCI. He also
founded KONSENS X advisory collective,
bringing strategic design thinking and
holistic digital solutions to clients in the
luxury and design industry. Inspired
by the introspection of the pandemic,
he decided to relaunch his refocussed
brand with a Democratic Unifit for All
mantra, bringing his conceptual design
thinking to a new generation with a string
of virtual and digital collaborations and
an immersive PHYGITAL showcase at
London Fashion Week. dw
