Image description

Compressed pieces of automobile sheet metal, painted by the original manufacturer in shades of green, off-white, brown, and orange, give form to a visually poetic assemblage. Chamberlain finds beauty in these discarded car parts. Salvaged from a junkyard, the scraps are altered and fitted together so that welding by the artist is not necessary. Only when the sculpture was completed, did the artist weld the pieces together as a means of reinforcement.
