After the production of Marina Abramović's five alabaster portraits that formed Five Stages of Maya Dance (exhibited at Masterpiece Presents in 2018), the artist continues her exploration of the image-making possibilities of relief carving, that merges the ephemeral and the permanent, performance and light.

Marina's self-portraits are carved in negative and positive relief in Corian; when light passes through them they give the effect of a positive or negative photograph. They were first displayed at Wilde Gallery's booth during Art Basel in 2019.
