The portrait with maracas pays homage to Mexican festivals honouring death, with the maracas serving as a symbolic tool of rhythm and sound. As with many of her works, the photograph is created using black-and-white silver gelatin printing, leaving the exact meaning of the maracas open to the viewer's interpretation. This piece weaves together themes of ritual, sound, and the artist's body as a medium for communication and endurance—central elements of Marina's performances. The maracas, emblematic of rhythm and ceremonial sounds, stand in striking contrast to the stillness of the photographic image. This tension invites exploration of the interplay between sound and silence, movement and stasis.
