Cutting Lives

Details

Overview

The concept of work is understood as the human activity carried out with the aim of producing a way of obtaining subsistence connected to the passage of time. The question that arises is how work can be the surrender of one's life (Make a deliberate incision in one's flesh, as a symptom of psychological or emotional distress.) In this vídeo, Silvio Eduardo Crisostomo exposes workers in activity alluding to bodies as ready-to-cut meat. Work as such activity sounds like repetition: the act of demolishing, building, living, and dying make up the simultaneous quadrilogy on a polyethylene cutting board.
