Cutters represent the culmination of works created in the last few years. They are a continuation of the previous series such as “Trophies”, “Only hooves”, “Stretches”, etc; but are located on the opposite side of the tape. These works deal with the final product and its quantity, which is obtained at the end of the production process. The cutters represent (zero-step), the source of that, they are perfectly programmed machines of capitalist propaganda (Capt. Manifesto). They are sharp and only one exists. A tool that mass-produces. They point to everything that has been destroyed in the world by things/by man. We have become a society of alienation and exploitation.
