Minya Mikic in London

Minya Mikic



Recently Minya Mikic - International artist from Italy, came to College of North West London to present her work. It was so inspiring to see successful artist explaining her concepts and ideas and the process of working to Access to Art and Design Students.

In 1999, a year before graduation, she moved to Rome from Serbia Novi Sad where she began her Italian adventure.
In the past nine years she has worked as a graphic designer and a visual artist and has extended her market outside Italy.

In 2006 she decided to enter the New York art scene and quickly established an excellent relationship with Monkdogz Urban Art gallery in Chelsea, the artistic heart of Manhattan.

After a couple of group exhibitions in this gallery and her solo presentation at KunStart in Bolzano, Italy in 2007, Minya’s first New York solo exhibition was held in October last year.

Roman public had a privilege to see a small preview of this exhibition on two occasions: in May last year in Galleria della Tartaruga, in the historic centre of Rome, the famous via Sistina, where her works on canvas where exhibited and in July at the “Singita”, Fregene a sea resort near Rome, where she presented her singular works on plexiglas painted on both sides.

FROM OTHER TO M+OTHER
Mixed media prints
works on paper

Through intersubjectivity one experiences oneself as different from the Other
This is a key component in the constitution of one's own existence as objectively existing subjectivity.
How intersubjectivity also helps in the constitution of objectivity: In the experience of the world as available not only to oneself, but also to the Other, the constitution of the world and its objects as objectively existing objects is constituted. This also includes the existence of Others, although they are constituted, much in the way oneself is constituted, as objectively existing subjectivities.








FROM OTHER TO M+OTHER

Intersubjectivity
provides the key to understanding how do we understand others.
