Sachiko Abe

Sachiko Abe by Julia Waugh.

​"The act of cutting is a constant exercise through which I organise
and structure my random thoughts. The rhythm of the scissors, the fineness
and the length of the paper strip correspond to the process of my thinking
and it's effect on the body. While essentially personal, “Cut Papers” is a
necessary practice for me to formulate my relationship to the external world."

The works of Sachiko Abe entitled "Cut Papers" are durational and
irrational, created through repetition, that seem to be cutting an eternal
revenge on a page and the stories ​excluded from a white A4 sheet.

"Throughout my artistic career, my primary focus has been the issue of identity,
in which individuals are categorised for what they are and how they function in
maintaining economic machinery. In the process of ​exploring my essential
discomfort ​against such social conditions, I started the act of ​cutting papers."

Sachiko Abe's work has explored regimes of subjectivity and cultural imposition, ​
most explicitly in her continuing series of performance work. In these acts she has
​created a surplus of material and of meaning within an apparently simple
aesthetic economy. It is this ​scenic space of ​production that allows interpretation.
