This Collage Artist Makes Provoking Postcards To Keep In Touch With His Friends Around The World (15 Pics)

During the holiday season, it can be hard to be away from friends and family. Especially now, during the pandemic, when traveling is restricted, it can be an isolating and lonely time for many people. There are those who work this season, or who don’t have a supportive tribe to nestle within, or may not have the finances to join in the celebration.

When we don’t have the opportunity to spend this special time of year with our loved ones in person, sending a postcard with a real message can create an authentic and humorous moment, that can be recalled through laughter the next year when the opportunity does arise. Humour can lighten the spirits and bring people together.

The young Dutch collage artist Knipoogst makes evocative collages that intend to excite the inner world of the observers, making them question the way they are thinking, their beliefs, and their knowledge. By combining and guiding images that have been reproduced millions of times, he creates a new context that somehow feels nostalgic. Knipoogst as an artist attempts to gain a deeper understanding of life in general – of people, rhythms, tendencies, and life’s undercurrents.

Which would you send to your loved ones?
