Curatorial note

Seen at Rodman Street in Society Hill, the piece occupies a curbside position as a durable element of the streetscape. The gray sedan’s rear with taillamps and a protruding exhaust creates a quiet focal point anchored by the reflection of overhead branches. Since January 2026, this work has remained in place, underscoring the neighborhood’s long-standing presence and the collection’s interest in infrastructural persistence.
