Troika

The work Troika deals with 3 pillars of contemporary biopolitics: politics, law and economy. The artists display a set of official documents indicating their political orientation, legal state and economical way of operating: 3 SDS membership cards, 3 ID cards and 3 Mastercards with the reproduction of their earlier action Mount Triglav on Mount Triglav (the highest mountain in Slovenia and preeminent symbol of the Slovene nation, a stylized depiction of which is the central element of the Slovenian coat of arms, and is in turn featured on the flag of Slovenia). These documents are displayed in opposition to a video showing the letter the 3 artists wrote to the politician Janez Janša soon after changing their names.
