"Nicolai uses the license that his status as an artist gives him to be free of academia - free to abuse sources and reconfigure images and objects of entirely different statuses. Thus, while remaining securely within the identity of an artist, Nicolai performs a role as a researcher and combiner - a turner-upside-down-of-things to see what they look like from another angle, and ultimately create new modes of visibility. His strategy, it would seem, is a fine one at this point in our cultural development, given the current moment's political exhaustion and the universalizing of 'creativity' for bland economic ends."
