The photographic record of this work is undergoing conservation treatment and is not presently on display. The work itself remains in the permanent collection.

Curatorial note

Seen at the curb of 1506–42 W Cabot St, the tarp-draped sedan occupies the edge between street and sidewalk. Since January 2026, the piece has remained on view, weathering in place alongside detritus and the missing wheel that anchors its sense of absence. The museum notes this work as a durable record of street-life persistence within the city’s public realm.
