Milena Dragicevic

Galerie Martin Janda presents More Like Air Than Land, Milena Dragicevic’s sixth solo exhibition, from 16th May to 12th July 2025.

The adjective “transatlantic” usually pops up when it comes to what connects the countries on the other side of the ocean, what they have in common. While the overseas remains a distinct point in the distance, a Eurocentrically perspectivized elsewhere, the transatlantic implies what connects the journey from one side of the sea to the other.
Milena Dragicevic has given this Atlantic in-between, which today is mostly crossed rather than traversed, a name and thus territorialized it: Transatlantica, an unknown but familiar territory and at the same time a space of possibility, real, fictitious, virtual or abstract. Transatlantica as the in-between of continents stands for the presence in several places at the same time, for constructive contradiction and coexisting opposites.
