“MY COPENHAGEN” is a bold reimagining of one of Denmark’s most iconic figures—the Little Mermaid—relocated to the heart of Nyhavn. Positioned where the old meets the cosmopolitan, she now gazes at sea, tourists, and Copenhagen’s famed shrimp sandwiches. The composition merges familiar sights with surreal whimsy, playfully bending location and expectation.

Mood & Narrative: There’s a warm, nostalgic tone beneath the urban surrealism. This is a portrait of a modern city that remembers its roots—the cobblestones, the harbor air, the mythic figures. It speaks of reinvention, of how cities evolve while carrying their identity. The mermaid becomes both observer and symbol of change.

Style & Technique: The piece features a seamless fusion of AI-generated atmosphere and digital craftsmanship. Klementsen uses vibrant textures, realistic reflections, and subtle abstraction to blend old-world charm with digital storytelling. There's a visual rhythm between tradition and innovation.

Color Palette: Bright yet earthy tones—brick reds, harbor blues, and golden lighting—create a welcoming and dynamic feel. Highlights shimmer across the scene, lending warmth and slight dreaminess.
