Travel was once a social currency. Social media was the photo-album and show-off space of our travels. Thousands of vloggers used to post about their travels, and millions of youtubers reviewed tourist locations.

In 2020/21 the airports were closed due to Covid, flights were stopped and borders were restricted. During this time the social status of travelling changed. People who uploaded photos of themselves in exotic destinations were mocked and bullied because they are considered to be insensitive to the situation and are putting others in danger; that was called “travel shaming”.

After a year of travel restrictions everyone’s cabin fever was intensifying. Rather than just praying that things improve so that we could do overseas shows and residencies again, Krack came up with an innovative, alternative way to solve our desire for mobility.

Greetings from Paradox invited 20 artists, designers, musicians, archivists, photographers and office workers to create their dream destination as a postcard. We then printed these dream destinations in limited editions. We were physically restricted from travelling to the places we wish to, but we could make these places come to us.

Be the first to experience the new way of travelling without shame. Whether its Trump’s Mar a Lago resort, a deserted beach, or a sci-fi fantasy, Krack’s limited edition postcards will bring these destinations to you!
