Mikke’s art is thoroughly marked with some of the great themes of art history; thus he should be recognized as one of those modern artists who try to maintain the role of art as a medium for our questioning and our discussion of the individuals relationship to the surroundings.{…}
We all know the moment when we feel in a glimpse, that we understand a greater coherence. A coherence that is not described and understood through concepts and theories, but suddenly and without interpretation is present, only to be gone a moment later. It is this moment that Mikkes tries to create. We call this “the sublime moment”. That moment when we have an experience of coherence and understanding, without this experience and understanding being mediated or borne by theories and concepts. Precisely a spontaneous experience. {…}
Lars Mikkes shows us that a world before concepts, unadorned, undifferentiated and incomprehensible, can only be experienced in the sublime moment, and all the rest is the speech of distance.
