Cuts and Pieces
Censorship is the younger of two shameful sisters, the older is called the Inquisition.
Censorship is the living admission of the rulers that they can only kick dumbed-down slaves but cannot rule free peoples.
Johann Nestroy
(Austrian Dramatist, satirist and actor, 1801 – 1862)
Deeply rooted in the cosmos of pop culture, the stylistic elements of advertising and comic culture are the inspiration and motivation for the Cologne street artist Cuts and Pieces' creative
work.
Cuts and Pieces uses sampling, a term familiar from music. He uses snippets of photos, pictures and graphics which he arranges in a new visual context. Analogue collage, spraypaint and stencil
techniques combined with the possibilities of digital image processing describe his working method best.
Always close to the pulse of time, Cuts and Pieces transforms the spirit of pop culture into contemporary streetart culture. He loves playing with suggestive messages and slogans, appealing and
catchy, with humour and charm and gladly with a touch of social criticism - but always direct and unabashedly honest.
Pop culture meets Streetart is an attitude to life for Cuts and Pieces.
