Sculptor Chavis Mármol has never owned a car, but that’s never inhibited his drive. Earlier this month, the 42-year-old Mexico City-based artist (who travels largely by bicycle) dropped a nine-ton replica of an Olmec head onto the roof of a blue Tesla Model 3 in a crushing display posted to Instagram on March 11. Mármol told Hyperallergic that his intention was “to satirize the Tesla brand and its creator.”
Hrm. It took six months to make so it’s unlikely we could deploy this strategy at scale but I praise the innovation.
This is such beautiful and inspiring art. Furthermore, this brilliant artist’s objective is so noble. Thank you for sharing this.
Hmmm. Are we not doing electric cars anymore? Sorry. I’m out of the loop.
We’re not doing Tesla
