Fluid Drive

Fluid Drive is a wall sculpture that was made using red and off-white leather shapes with textured fabric centers that have been wired and sewn together and then linked together with rusted transmission parts. The name Fluid Drive was taken from an advertisement for DeSoto automobiles in the 1940s in honor of the emblem that the piece hangs from, which is from a 1949 DeSoto truck.
