  • Together again, 2009 Vikenti Komitski Together again, 2009 world map, paper
    edition: 5 Together Again is a work that coincides with the line of the present. Its author, Vikenti Komitski, collages the political geography of the world into an almost unified continent. Pangaea seems to represent a lost unity of the worlds that has been restored in the form of a colourful geopolitical patchwork. The optimism emanating from the title Together Again puts an “end”, an end to geographic, political, economic and cultural division. The world looks compiled as in a children’s game, profaned in a way. As Giorgio Agamben writes, “To profane means to open the possibility of a special form of negligence, which ignores separation or, rather, puts it to a particular use.” Vikenti Komitski also profanes the very process of creation, deliberately abandoning everything he learned from his education. Regrouped by the artist, the continents are a parody of the ongoing processes of uniformity which penetrate into all spheres of human relations and where everything functions in a state of separation from itself, solely by its exchangeable economic value. Ultimately, what the new state of global peace created by Vikenti Komitski tells us is that the earth is flat.
