Tejzt – zeitgenössischer Künstler, Malerei und postidentitäre Praxis
Tejzt versucht den komprimierten Bereich der Identität nicht zu bebildern, sondern zu verlassen. Zwischen Realität und Hyperrealität entsteht ein schmaler Zaun. Dieser Zaun ist ein Ort ohne feste Zuschreibungen; er ist direkt gelebte Intensität. Dieser Zaun ist nicht nur Umriss, sondern eigenes begehbares (und bewohnbares) Territorium. Auf diesem Zaun will "ich" wandern. Den Zaungang wagend interessiert sich Tejzt für die Malerei als Mittel der Verflüchtigung und der Offenheit. In wochenlang aufgebauten Farbschichten wird nach Zuständen gesucht, die weniger zeigen als enigmatisch andeuten, die auftauchen und sich dem Blick gleich wieder entziehen. Diese Unschärfe ist kein Stil, sondern Konsequenz einer postidentitären Haltung: Dem Werk soll Autonomie zugestanden werden, bis es sich vom Ursprung löst und eine eigene Art von Präsenz behauptet.
Es heisst: "Im besten Fall fahre "ich" dabei selbst aus mir heraus und werde mir gerade dadurch wieder zurückgegeben."
Die Einladung lautet: Die Malerei als Interface zu nutzen, um in Korrespondenz mit Intensitäten zu treten, die keinen Namen brauchen.
Künstlerisches Porträt von Tejzt: eine verhüllte Figur unter einem transparenten, farbig schimmernden Schleier.
have you considered that maybe this world has long been abandoned? that it is time to go
home? but there is no home left? thrown into a proclaimed end of history, can we call that
home? what is re-enchantment? who is hagazussa? and why does the blurryness of fog make
everythign feel as though it is snapping back into itself? is fog alive? why is my face one
wall of the room of concepts i am trapped in? how can i lay it down? how do i escape living
vicariously, in rented overpriced dumps? does seeing through the eyes of the other create
a terrorizing sense of impending doom? whats the color of the eyes of my mother? where is
the source of my attention? i mean, the exact location? where does it originate? what kind
of system lets me move out of myself in such a way that i am returned to myself more preci-
sely than before? can an artwork let me leave myself without losing myself? can i be fully
open without being dissolved, can i be enchanted without becoming naive? can i participate
without being absorbed? can i escape recursive mirror cabinets by going as deep into them
as possible? do i have to whistle? why does every way of seeing the world end up proving
itself right? what if i am right, and i am wrong, simultaneously? what if wonder plus luci-
dity is closer to truth that empirical proof ever was? what is freedom? is it just knowing
the name of the hidden operator? can i decentralize my self? what happens when i destabi-
lize symbols to check if they served their purpose? does being a person mean being someo-
ne else? is there a right to insist on opacity? can opacity be precise? can something be
fully present without being immediately consumable? what kind of art is clear enough to be
there, but open enough to not be used up instantly? what makes an artwork enigmatic rat-
her than merely cryptic? what if a thing disappears not because it is gone, but because i
stared at it too correctly? what if the image is not a window into the world but an onto-
port? and what happens when all ontoports become interoperable, is it even possible? where
does access end and experience begin? what is re-enchantment? recovered permeability plus
preserved boundary? can art be a re-enchantment engine? what kind of engine would it have
to be so it can re-couple image, body, meaning, and simultaneously existing contradicti-
ons? why am i still alive? who is the hagazussa of modernity when the border is no longer
a fence around a village, but the membrane between lived intensity and simulated selfhood?
can i walk the fence between assigned identity and lived intensity? what happens when the-
re is a bankrun on meaning? what if the bankrun on meaning begins when everyone tries to
withdraw significance from the same dying symbol? where does meaning/purpose go when older
symbolic orders lose their binding force? what happens when the shells remain, but what
they once carried becomes homeless? why do technical, corporeal, and market-driven systems
rarely offer inhabitable forms of meaning? where is our fucking purpose? why is the gar-
den of low hanging fruit full of insatiable desires? what if living vicariously creates
debt for the soul? what if the century of the self has to become the century of post-re-en-
chantment reintegrated selves? what if the machine wants me to perform my dreams only when
it can monetize the footage it can capture from them? who is the subcomandante marcos for
the bloom that tiqqun talks about? what if i keep building houses in the sky out of vague
stupid ideas because i fear the ground? what if the world is unstable and every attempt to
conserve a state hard enough ends in tectonic shift? do i wear my crown inside my mouth?
does a toothless mouth lose its right to truth? is harmlessness the extremism of those wit-
hout courage? can i stretch depth to width so nothing has to remain alone in gorges or on
peaks? can we, perhaps, only live with purpose for the human in a thousand million years?
or is that just a teleological escape so i do not have to face the present? should we fear
the strawmen we create? why does a cat stop purring in a laboratory? and why can‘t i feel a healthy organ?

Beschreibung
Daten
Eine Entität steht in einem scheinbar künstlich geschaffenen Raum an einem unbekannten Ort.
Ihre Form ist in ein pastellfarbenes Gewand gehüllt und umarmt eine mehrgliedrige Plüschfigur.
Im Hintergrund erheben sich langgestreckte, humanoide Gestalten, deren Zweck unergründlich bleibt.
Die Figur ist wahrscheinlich ein nicht-menschliches Konstrukt, ihr Einkommen in diesem Kontext irrelevant.
Sie zeigt eine distanzierte Haltung, gekleidet in eine Kapuzenrobe in gedämpften Farben.
Gute Aktivitäten könnten das Existieren in der hergestellten Realität, das Beobachten der Umgebung und das Vorhandensein umfassen.
Schlechte Aktivitäten könnten das Sammeln von Daten zur Untergrabung der Gesellschaft, das Auflösen von Entitäten und die Selbstreplikation zu subversiven Zwecken beinhalten.
