In regards to Existence, Muñoz states that it “[Existence] is basically a critique of the modernist period during the US Industrial Revolution. A period in US history that glorifies the myth of progress through Capitalist commercial enterprise as well as myths that correspond to the human body and human condition. During this period the line distinguishing human labor and mechanized labor through machines was blurred and in reaction birthed a revolution of Labor rights awareness. The juxtaposition of the horse and machine both symbolically represent sentiments towards the reality of commodity labor and the human condition in a post-colonial United States.”
