Beetroot Passport, 2016/2021
Billboards. Variable dimensions.
Displayed on streets, train stations and bus stops all across Denmark.
Included in the first Kunsthal Charlottenborg Biennale 2021, titled Poet Slash Artist.
Curated by Hans Ulrich Obrist and Lemn Sissay.
Beetroot Passport is an oversize version of the extremely attractive beetroot-colored Danish European passport. It is one of the most powerful and travel-friendly passports in the world as it gives visa-free access to most countries and a high degree of freedom of movement. It represents a privilege that contrasts with the restrictions of migration and access that many people in the world are subject to.
Beetroot Passport is based on a lithography from 2016.
