The Jewel / In God We Trust: Junk Car Covered In Gold Leaf In Luxury Car Dealer Showroom
title The Jewel / In God We Trust: Junk Car Covered In Gold Leaf In Luxury Car Dealer Showroomdescription João Louro's project "The Jewel / In God We Trust" traces the inverted trajectory of the recycling dynamic that characterizes the border zone. His project begins with the selection of a European car recovered from a junkyard in Tijuana and transformed into a "jewel" through the addition of a skin of gold leaf. Once this trash object is transformed into a opulent gold sculpture it will be exhibited and auctioned in San Diego. Proceeds from the sale will be given to an elementary school in Tijuana and used to support visual art workshops for children, where students will be encouraged to add further layers of imagery to the paper money. --inSite_05 La Jolla, San Diego (Calif.)
