In Conversation: Polar Skate Co.'s Jonas Skagen on Cinema and Cut

The Malmö brand's longtime collaborator on building visual language outside the skate canon.

Related brand: Polar Skate Co.
Jonas Skagen has been one of Polar's most visible visual collaborators since 2013. In an extended conversation he describes the brand's aesthetic as 'European arthouse made for skateboards,' citing Béla Tarr and the early Roy Andersson shorts as recurring reference points. A limited-edition photo book accompanies the brand's SS26 release.
