AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Marta Hołderna — SELF-PORTAL 911, 2025
An original artistic installation created on the hood of a Porsche 911, blending sculpture with the distinctive form of automotive design.
From the surface of the hood, a face and hands emerge, creating the impression of human presence enclosed within the object. The body panel becomes a portal—a meeting place for body, emotion, and matter.
The composition is covered with about 190,000 TOHO glass beads, 3 mm in diameter, applied by hand, one by one. Their dense structure accentuates the sculptural forms and responds to light, changing the work’s appearance depending on the viewing angle. From afar it forms a cohesive surface; up close it reveals thousands of tiny elements and the scale of the craftsmanship.
SELF-PORTAL 911 combines contemporary art, precise craftsmanship, and automotive culture. The work was presented at Ultrace 2025 in Wrocław.
