A thousand ways to die in an accident

2022-2023

Artistic action

Photography series made in collaboration with the artist Anyelo Troya.

In this series, Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara recreates hypothetical accident scenarios that the Cuban Political Police would use to "get rid" of the artist and cover it up as an accident or suicide. He explains how unprotected the Cuban civil society is up to the point of betting on the truth in the face of legal helplessness. This series is also a tribute to all those who have lost their lives or are serving false sentences for simply thinking in a totalitarian system.
