The work examines the knife as a tool in Cuban society. The primitive object not only features in daily rituals, but often more prominent occasions that leave a mark, often physical, on the participants. From religious sacrifices and celebrations to domestic abuse and gender-based attacks, the knife transforms into a mythical sign of luck for some, while it features as a phallic symbol of violence for others.
