Inkjet Prints, 2023 

 MotherTruckers features a series of automotive photographs of vintage and abandoned vehicles taken in Berkeley that caught my attention. These cars have particularly caught my attention as they are symbols of times changing. The designs of the vintage car differ massively to more recent cars whilst the color scheme of vintage cars is more vibrant and fuller of life compared to the more monochrome and duller shade we tend to see on a day to day basis. Through these images, I aim to capture people's everyday lives with "portraits" of their cars to portray times changing.  The purpose of these was to capture the relationships between automobiles with the environment and the people, especially in the US society that has a culture of reliance on cars. Over the years, people move on to purchasing greater, more advanced products, forgetting, or disposing of what once used to be useful and sufficient.
