To enable Abramović to create the prints in a manner consistent with her performative practice, Samuel prepared the plates so she could scratch directly into the surface with her fingernails, even encouraging the use of saliva as a symbolic substitute for nitric acid. This work is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), New York.
Marina Abramović é reconhecidamente um dos maiores ícones da arte contemporânea no mundo e pioneira da arte performática, cativando o público ao ultrapassar os limites do seu corpo e mente.
Já a série histórica "Spirit Cooking" (1996), produzida em colaboração com Jacob Samuel, resulta em um livro de obras gráficas, águas-fortes e gravuras, que apresentam “receitas afrodisíacas” formuladas como instruções evocativas para ações ou estados mentais. Para permitir que a artista realizasse as gravuras de modo coerente com sua prática performática, Jacob Samuel preparou as matrizes para que a artista pudesse riscar diretamente a superfície com as unhas, incentivando também o uso da saliva como substituto simbólico do ácido nítrico. A obra integra a coleção do Museum of Modern Art (MoMA - NY), nos EUA.
