In Oslo, words rarely stay still. They drift through conversations in hotel lounges, echo across studio floors, and dissolve into the city’s informal rhythm of cafés, apartments and late-night exchanges. It is within this restless linguistic atmosphere that the practice of Unni Askeland takes shape—less as a fixed position than as an ongoing dialogue with the city itself.
Her presence within Norwegian contemporary culture has long been defined by this interplay between speech, image and persona. In Askeland’s orbit, language becomes performative material: sharp, improvisational, and often deliberately unpolished, reflecting a broader Oslo sensibility where art is inseparable from lived social intensity.
To speak of her work, then, is to speak of Oslo as much as of painting.
Emerging from the early 1990s Scandinavian rave circuit, Trulz & Robin reflect on techno as more than music — a shared system of belonging built in clubs, warehouses, and fleeting moments of unity that still echo through their Cymasonic releases.
” FOR TRE ÅR SIDEN GJORDE JEG ET TYPISK POPUP DRAGQUEEN-SHOW PÅ FINCKEN I BERGEN. ETTER FORESTILLINGEN TOK JEG AV MEG KOSTYMET, BYTTET DET UT MED MITT AFTER SHOW-ANTREKK, OG SAMMEN MED NOEN “TRANSER” GIKK JEG OVER VEIEN TIL UTESTEDET GARAGE. INGEN AV OSS KOM INN, MED BESKJED OM AT ”VI SLIPPER IKKJE INN FOLK I KOSTYMER”. NÅ ER JEG UTESTENGT PÅ LIVSTID, MED SAMME BEGRUNNELSE. “
Cacho Falcon turns intimacy into material and material into spectacle, moving from “therapeutic denim” in early-2000s Brooklyn to body painting practices that quite literally inscribe people’s private histories onto skin. Fashion noticed, fame followed, and New York did what it always does—absorbed him, then reflected him back as both artist and myth. His work sits in that uneasy space between therapy and performance, confession and commerce, where strangers become collaborators and vulnerability is temporarily wearable. The result is less a career than a continuous social experiment in exposure, erasure, and reinvention—delivered with just enough glamour to keep it from feeling like confession.
Hilde Marstrander has spent decades moving between fashion, media and cultural commentary—shaping taste as much as reporting on it. From London runways to Nordic editorial power desks, she has helped define how Scandinavia sees itself through style, debate and image. Now, her perspective turns back on a rapidly shifting fashion landscape where authority is fragmented, and visibility is everything.

” I DDD er alles mening viktig enten du er “rookie” eller “O.G” (Original Gangster). Det er en av de tingene jeg setter mest pris på i DDD, men det er til gjengjeld ganske krevende, kanskje spesielt for en “nykomling”. Men øvelse gjør mester, og å bli utfordret på disse tingene hver dag samtidig som man får observere andre med erfaring jobbe så fokusert, er utrolig god trening.”

I DEFINITELY BELIEVE ALL FINE TYPES OF ART TO BE POLITICAL IN A SENSE. I NEVER CONSIDERED MY DESIGN AND COLLECTIONS AS” FASHION” OR” TREND” BUT AS STATEMENTS. EVERY GARMENT I’VE DESIGNED, AND EVERY SHOW I PRESENTED, HAS A BACKGROUND STORY. I’m COMPLETELY UNINTERESTED IN CLOTHES AS FASHION ITEMS, AND I NEVER TRIED OR WANTED TO BE” TRENDY.” I LOVE THE STORIES THAT PEOPLE TELL, WITH THEIR LOOKS AND APPEARANCES. I ALWAYS TRIED TO TELL STORIES ON THE CATWALK WITH MY MODELS AND DESIGN.
” VI ER MANGE SOM VAR GENERASJON PERFEKT OG VILLE GJØRE ALT RIKTIG OG VÆRE FLINKEST DA JEG OGSÅ VAR TENÅRING. VI GRÅT MASSE OG GRUDDE OSS MASSE, OG VILLE AT LIVET SKULLE VÆRE PERFEKT. DET HETER FAKTISK Å VÆRE TENÅRING, DET HETER IKKE Å VÆRE PSYKISK SYK.”

A modest Norwegian upbringing, a Bowie-sized ambition, and a refusal to separate music from fashion, image from sound, or idea from execution. Under the name Suprastate, Thomas builds a self-contained creative system where noise, tailoring, and pop instinct collide into one continuous aesthetic engine. At a moment when culture is drowning in unfinished ideas, he insists on the opposite: everything must be made, fully, or not at all.
EVERYDAY’S ANOTHER HOLIDAY by SOHO

A night that begins in showroom melancholy and ends deep inside Oslo’s club circuitry—moving from curated fashion haze at Soyaaulait, through Jaeger’s late-night spill, to the kinetic pressure of The Villa. At the centre of it all, Berlin techno authority Ellen Allien and Oslo’s own Della reshape the dancefloor into something less like escapism and more like shared emotional infrastructure—where house, techno and human connection blur into one continuous pulse.
