Salke1

Christoffer Henriksen alias Salke1 (b.1997) is a Norwegian street and pop artist. Christoffer started with art at the age of 10 and has since then developed his artistic style. He mainly works with spray on canvas, but also uses ink and acrylic. In addition, he also creates light installations and sculptures.

Salke1 has left its artistic mark on everything from the offices of Redbull, the premises of MESH Oslo, Atea, the Nordics' leading IT group, bowling alleys, secondary schools and for several private individuals.

Through art, Salke1 wants to spread joy, motivate and inspire people. He uses popular culture and pop references as a starting point to bring in a touch of nostalgia, while at the same time renewing something that many people already have a connection to. His aim is to engage on a personal level. By combining familiar elements from the past with a modern twist, he hopes to give people a sense of recognition and joy.

The choice of colors in Salke1's art is deliberately strong and energetic. Strong colors spread good energy, lift the interior and stand out. If you want a piece of art that breaks up with your home's interior, acts as a statement piece, or something that compliments existing decor, strong colors are the answer.

Salke1 draws inspiration from popular culture, music, visual art and architecture. He describes it like this: "It fascinates me to think about why we like what we like, and I explore this through my art. These elements give me a rich palette of ideas that I use to create works that both capture the moment now and then."
