In his fairy tales, Hans Christian Andersen gave a voice to objects, animals and plants. In doing so, he created stories from a completely new and different perspective. What would nature and the things around us have to say in 2026 if you were a fairy tale writer and could make them speak?

Using ReMida’s many wonderful materials, sourced from nature and surplus production at businesses on Funen, both children and adults can create your own interpretation of an object, a plant or an animal that has something to say in 2026. You can voice to your creation by discussing and writing an accompanying message or a story. Is it the tree or something else in nature, one of the statues in the cityscape, or perhaps a bicycle that needs a body, life and a voice? Let’s see and hear what is said when plants, animals and objects have their say!

Venue: In the tent on the street of Ny Vestergade
