The Salmon Rider: Kiss me

Automatic translation from Danish.

I have called my work “Kiss Me” and it is strongly inspired by the world of fairy tales. There is something deeply fairy-tale about a letter – filled with curiosity, anticipation and the uncertainty that can only be experienced physically. The envelope that must be torn open before the letter can tell its story. A text message does not work like that. There is no magic in an email. A letter is a physical contact surface between sender and recipient. It weighs heavier than Snapchats and Instagram DMs, and I hope that we can take a small, fairy-tale piece of the letter with us into a fully automated, algorithm-controlled and digital world. The uniquely human feeling we feel in our bodies when an unopened letter excites our curiosity beyond recognition, when the absence of a letter in the mailbox makes our anticipation tear, or when the unexpected gives us a sinking feeling in our stomachs just at the sight of a stamp.

The salmon rider is known for his colorful and imaginative videos for children on social media, where he inspires children to draw and embark on all kinds of creative projects. He is also the author of a series of children's books and wallets and the brainchild behind several startups - including the children's media Flimmer.

Size: The mailbox measures approx. 34 cm in depth, 44.5 cm in width and 78 cm in height and weighs approx. 21 kg.
