Place my little talisman in the square space, sit on it bythe fire, hide behind it when I got scared stiff, and cling myself to it as I tried to swim ashore on anotherpossible desert island to happily be reunited with the rest of my family.We have made 5 of them, so there is one for each family member. It is named after our dog, whounfortunately has to stay at home because she doesn’t like water.Designed by Morten Linde Colors selected and hand painted by Pernille Iben Linde.YOLK is a family based art and design studio founded by Pernille Iben and Morten Linde. Their shared interests, professional backgrounds, love of materials, aesthetic sensibility, creative urge and curiosity is the basis for YOLK. So far, two of their three children - Amanda and Carl Otto Linde - are active members.The starting point is the academic discipline and professional expertise of each YOLK member, ranging from product and furniture design, to visual communication, to fashion and fine art. YOLK artists are represented individually and also through collaborative cross-disciplinary work.They only produce one of each piece of art and design, i.e. each and every item is a one-off. Occasionally there are series, but never with identical expression. YOLK work in all materials and draw upon external artisans and craftsmen.Pernille Iben and Morten have been together for the last 35 years. They live and work in Copenhagen. Amanda also lives in Copenhagen where she in addition to her YOLK art, produces and sells accessories through her own company. Carl Otto is currently studying fine arts in Amsterdam.
