The present publication assembles a series of drawings; 818 to be exact, divided in 32 chapters. How can we navigate through them, how can we deal with both the whole and the details? Or as Tedja writes in The Holarium: “Why do we need a specific connection in order to see things as separate from one another? Can a thing ever be unconnected? Is the human eye even able to see the things around it as separate from each other?” Tedja’s art is based on studying the circulation and recycling of images. He is constantly introducing images in new contexts, exposing and manipulating their mutability. Tedja’s oeuvre, drawing on such disciplines as draftmanship, painting, literature, and installations to produce a cohesive whole, has generated a visual language that contributes to the development of art in context of globalization.
