A disturbingly beautiful look into the mind of a "cutter". A young girl shows the inspiration she finds in her somewhat bizarre ritual, and shares with us the beauty in an act that most would consider disquieting.

John Santerineross



Born in 1955 in New York City, John Santerineross is an American photographer with a background in ceramics and painting. He is considered to be a "neo-symbolist", an artist that continues or reinterprets the 19th century art movement Symbolism. Like its predecessor, neo-symbolism focuses on the spiritual, the subconscious, and dreams. Santerineross’ unique style and content has inspired an entire new generation of artists; his complex aesthetic is derived from a combination of his exposure to Catholicism and Santeria and by his fascination with Greek mythology, world religions and iconography.
