Cutting Aktion

2022

Pursuing from my first definition of the line, I continued working in a line concept, questioning the actionist tools (=blood, cut, tattoo). These images have been translated into lines and thus distance themselves from their connotation and association. This creates the opportunity to detach blood, the self-inflicted cut and tattoo from pathos.
The tattoo (reinforcement line) indicates the tempo and sound of the body room and acts as a comparison object for all subsequent lines.
The flowing blood becomes a “natural line”. This line represents all substances that are fluid enough to be influenced by gravity.
The cut is translated as an “invasive line”. I intentionally refrained using the term radical here, as the act of cutting itself represents a necessity rather than a provocation. In short: without a cut there is no blood, without blood there is no comparison.
