Curatorial note

Seen in the photograph, a shallow crack along the left edge of the rear bumper anchors the work within the Chestnut Hill streetscape. Acquired January 2026, the gray sedan has occupied its curbside position for 116 days. The rear window reflection captures bare branches, reinforcing the piece's stillness in late autumnal light.
