Paper Cuts is an interactive paper guillotine by artists Mandy Smith and
Hal Kirkland. It invites people to experience the world’s most recognizable
instrument of death, head first. However, unlike its deadly ancestor, this
blade offers nothing more final than a paper cut. The Paper Cuts guillotine
experience, hosted in Amsterdam and London, brings a new twist to this infamous
apparatus by transforming a powerful symbol of death into a thing of beauty.
Delicate, inviting and something people may even line up for. Voluntarily this
time. Every time the paper blade falls a camera films the person’s final
fate-filled expression, forever immortalizing it on PaperCuts-Exhibtion.com as a sharable Gif.
