Enchanting creations. I'm so glad I stumbled upon your work. One video is not enough, I'm going to search for more information about you. I could only dream of entering your magical realm.
I was quite taken with these sculptures and went looking for the book that was put out a few years ago, unfortunately I had no luck finding a place to purchase it. Amazing and haunting work.
These sculptures are superb...they look as though they just maybe take to life...just as they do in my imagination...thank you Jefunne love from Scotland💌😁
When I seen the most covered figures it reminded me of tree people in books written by Emily Rhoda the 3 doors trilogy, straight away they took me to that magical world, I would give anything to see her creations mixed with yours, I say, 3 years late 🤷♀️🙇♀️🍀👍.
this is beautiful work. I am very concerned about the method of applying the fibre. Even though Kim wears protective gear during the application, surely this should be done in a dedicated room so the fibres won't be lose all over the room afterwards to inhale. I hope he considers this as it could be extremely toxic to ingest into the body.
Faithful marriage and family is MOST important, as you are learning. With your art, God has put the icing on your cake! Continued success with your work!

Hi, the 1st edition of the book was sold out about a year ago. But now there is a 2nd edition available via Kim Simonsson's website: www.kimsimonsson.com/news-about-kim-simonsson.html
really wonderful the Moss people. And that future loneliness, I think, is contained in that terrible nylon toxic fiber. ( 'A beautiful reflection of the natural world' with a highly toxic material... what a contradiction)

I believe it can. If you were to "under fire" this clay (and possibly leave some larger pores) - I believe you could "seed" the sculpture with moss. The under fired clay being used to hold extra water for the moss to feed from and grip to. Think "chia pet." I've toyed with this before on planters with a little success... I should revisit that idea...
@@michaelstem2166 Yes, that sounds like an interesting idea. And have you seen the moss art they make on walls, etc, with the use of a mixture of moss and a growth culture that they paint onto the walls? It would need more delicate handling and upkeep of course.
Nice to see that these are made by artist, at day job. When other option is to frame idea and make couple of drawings, mini sculpture perhaps give to work group who make 10 per month, asking same price. Or worst kind of idea Chinese make 1000 moss orphans 3D printing machine / per 2 months, sold whit trademark. My point is no more trash, is good if these are art pieces not products, more valuable and more rare, more desirable. Cant say about nylon fiber is it environment friendly, depends how artifact and materials for it is kept and do we give artist secular right to use polluting materials. Logic is usual, norm, when you use these kind of materials what pollute, result is that what you are describing here, orphans wondering alone polluted world trying survive in future.
Yes. Rembrandt should have used real flesh instead of that dreadful, dangerous flake white paint stuff. OK a bit rough! But the whole point about these works (to me) is their synthetic nature. Putting moss on them might reduce them to a piece of garden centre gnomeland whimsy. As it is they are 'otherworldly' due in no small part to the artist's command of technique & knowledge plus application of synthetic materials.
...no pretense in his demeanor: a decent, honest artist, very good at his craft... Unfortunately, the bombastic, purely journalistic title writes off these qualities (rare in our times, although they may sound modest). The usual adjectives like "amazing", "awesome", cheap interjections ("wow", etc.) put Mr.Simonson in the same league with scores of would-be artists flocking the Internet, hash-tag experts fishing for praise. ...He deserves much better, as the clip is proving...
Wow, just know interpretations from different ppl can be extremely different. You should listen again how he explains the storylike meaning he hasfor them. But ultimately it is up to the observer what each piece depicts and symbolizes. I alaothink he likes the medium.

That work is amazing , I love how it is a beautiful reflection of the natural world.

Wow! What great art - my kind!! Love this - please don't stop!
Thank you for sharing! Love Moss People!
Very cool, I saw a pic with his work some time back but couldn't find it again. Thanks!
Hello, this is a very nice video, so interesting! His work is amazing, so poetic! Thank you for sharing it, very good job! 🤗
Inspiring stuff! I’m fascinated by moss, so I love this moss look.
Your imaginarium bringing these magical beings into our existence...thank you.
Unbelievably beautiful!
Absoluetly fantastic!!

that is so flocking beautiful
Fantastic work!😍 I love it!
Love the Mossy Green texture!
Wow what an enchanted life...Enjoy!
What a great talent!?! Amazing.
I was fortunate to see the exhibit at the American Swedish Institute in Mpls Mn a few years ago. Wonderful
Fiskars are my favorite scissors have a few pair. Nice work‼️
Thank you, amazing Art… 👍🇩🇰
Very cool love it!
Great stuff!
Thankyou
Absolutely "brilliant" love this art.

Beautiful. Isn't it great when a fluke turns out to be star of the show; ugly yellow. Your art, your work place and your family speaks volumes.
this is beautiful work. I am very concerned about the method of applying the fibre. Even though Kim wears protective gear during the application, surely this should be done in a dedicated room so the fibres won't be lose all over the room afterwards to inhale. I hope he considers this as it could be extremely toxic to ingest into the body.

Amazing!
They are so intriguing! Beautiful! What does the two headed rabbit symbolize?
From how he describes the moss people, it is likely a future animal after the event that caused the mossy children as well.
Dang, buy those twins(?) some toys!
Love your story and how it evolved into the moss children and their story.
hi from Turkey
hayallerimde bile ulaşamadığım olanaklardaki stüdyonuzu mu, yoksa eserlerinizi mi daha çok sevdim bilemiyorum....
öyle sanıyorum ki yaratıcılığınız hepsinden daha görkemli...
Nice !
Great 💚
Wow so clever 😊
Visionary
fantastical is not a word its just fantastic it mean of fantasy or not real
is the flocking permanent? Or is the fibre prone to breakign off?
It's easy to make something ugly but very difficult to make something beautiful.
Lovely.

Have you ever used concrete to sculpt?
I like the 3 dimensionality of people...it is not a simple straight path
Nice! But imagine if it could be done with real moss!

So, that’s the two headed rabbit at the end?
😍😍💗😘👍

The poster for privilege right here, lol...
Art has devolved into something weird…it’s now a contest to see who can be the weirdest…🤮
sad, frightening.
Would be much better if you used real moss! Microscopic Nylon fibers cause dramatic damage to your lungs unfortunately:(
That's why he's wearing the suit and is in a specialist ventilated space...

and you get paid for this?
this video desperately needs a lavalier mic
What the heyell is this even about?????

I need to hear a psychological evaluation of his sculptures, because they look disturbing as if he hates children .............
Children are horrible.Who could blame him.
Wow, just know interpretations from different ppl can be extremely different. You should listen again how he explains the storylike meaning he hasfor them. But ultimately it is up to the observer what each piece depicts and symbolizes. I alaothink he likes the medium.
@@clonejones7955 why do you think children are horrible? You were a child once, were you so horrible? Wao, I can't believe your judgement! Insane.
I can tell you don't create art....
Psychologists and artists both disagree with you lol
Like his work but not the pushing of the green agenda.
Amazing!
