MERCURY WHITE POLICE CAR

Jeff Kauffman

Created 2017.

Digital Photograph. From the artist's Carface project, a series of photographs of the “faces” of toy Matchbox cars from the mid-1960s to early 1970s. The artist chose a head-on view of the toys to portray the strongest, most unique part of any subject, the face. The toys are nearly as old as the artist, and they too bear the scratches, chips, and accumulated imperfections from life’s wear and tear.
