“The body is her subject, time her medium.” This essay offers a glimpse into Abramović’s discipline and endurance, from Seven Easy Pieces to The Artist Is Present, and how age itself becomes material. Read the full piece below.

For Marina Abramović, the avatar isn’t just an image, it’s a living archive of knowledge. It that will move, perform, and evolve long after her.

In MAE, the age of Abramović's avatar holds symbolic weight. If you were to create your own avatar, what age would it be? Would it even have an age? Does it matter? Let's discuss in the comments!

1/ MAE stems from Marina Abramović’s desire to carry her legacy beyond the physical. Creating digital identity through an avatar means freedoms not possible in the flesh. Part of that freedom is choosing your age, your image, your posture, your activity. In MAE, the avatar is

The Libra New Moon is tied to the heart chakra (ruby). It's time to restore harmony and heal emotional tension. This New Moon, MAE invites you to sit with Portrait with Rose and ask: 🌹 What does balance of the heart look like for you?

“The most difficult thing is to find balance between doing and being.” — Marina Abramović Under the Libra New Moon, balance is the intention. In MAE, The Rose mirrors this state: beautiful, fierce and fragile.

Identity in the digital age isn’t fixed, it’s iterative. Grateful to join these creative thinkers to explore how the "self" transforms in digital space.
In our Space with @artandvault last week, @firefiat and TAEX Head of Content Sofya Chibis led a conversation with @shavonnewong_ @robek_world, @maxcapacity, and @steferel from @MAE_TAEX on identity in digital art. Here are some reflections from the discussion 👇🧵

The word avatar comes from Sanskrit, meaning “descent” - a deity taking human or earthly form. MAE descends into the digital.

Rhythm 0 revealed a darker side of what can happen when the body becomes the artwork. MAE asks what becomes possible when the body dissolves. What does that mean for presence, freedom, and empathy?
@taex_com @artandvault @firefiat @MAE_TAEX @maxcapacity @robek_world @shavonnewong_ @Stefarel_ @aishacarmen555 @jrdsctt Great discussion.
