Cut-Up Subjects

Title: en Cut-Up Subjects
Description: en We approached our themes as unstable narratives, not fixed stories but fragments of language, concepts, and embodied urgencies. Through a process of cutting up words and disassembling language, we disrupted linear meaning-making, breaking open the materials into smaller units of sense and sensation.

Each word became a loose fragment, carrying multiple potentialities. With strings, we physically connected these fragments on the floor — not by logical associations, but by following friction, tension, and resistance. The stringing process exposed unexpected relationships, where words clashed, echoed, or destabilized each other.

Rather than seeking coherence, we embraced contradiction and dissonance, allowing new configurations to emerge organically. In these points of tension, new subjects surfaced, not as stable topics but as dynamic activation tools for further exploration. The act of cutting and connecting became a method for composing meaning through movement, touch, and relationality.
