SONY Pictures Malaysia is thrilled to announce an exciting collaboration with acclaimed local artist Arif Rafhan, who has unveiled a unique art series inspired by the iconic Marvel character Venom and Malaysia's rich tradition of batik.
This extraordinary fusion of pop culture and heritage celebrates the release of Venom: The Last Dance, bringing a bold new look to the beloved anti-hero while showcasing Malaysia’s artistic roots.
The Venom x Batik Inspired Art Series reimagines the notorious symbiote Venom through intricate batik patterns, blending dark, edgy aesthetics with the elegance and vibrancy of Malaysia’s traditional textile art.
Arif Rafhan’s interpretation breathes new life into Venom, merging the fluid forms of batik motifs with Venom’s iconic sharp, chaotic visuals.
"We are incredibly proud to work with Arif Rafhan to bring this unique concept to life. This project is a great example of how we can blend global pop culture phenomena with local heritage, creating something truly special for Malaysian audiences." said Simon Foo, Managing Director of Sony Pictures Entertainment Malaysia.

Arif Rafhan, known for his innovative use of Malaysian cultural elements in contemporary art, shared his thoughts on the project.
"Venom is such a fascinating character with a strong visual identity. By blending that with batik, which is deeply personal to me and to the Malaysian heritage, I wanted to create something that felt familiar yet refreshingly different. It's a celebration of both worlds."
This unique collaboration between Sony Pictures Malaysia and Arif Rafhan is a testament to the ongoing efforts to bridge global pop culture with local traditions, offering Malaysian audiences a special connection to the Venom universe.
The Venom x Batik Inspired Art Series will be featured across various platforms, including digital content, and a special in cinema content only at GSC locations during the release of Venom: The Last Dance. (Venom: The Last Dance is exclusively in cinemas on 24 October). - 7KLIK
