CARBON COPY is a sculpture by Caitlind r.c. Brown and Wayne Garrett, installed in the Brewery District of Edmonton, Canada, in 2018. The lights of the 1988 Plymouth Caravelle glow, and a laser in the front seat scans the pavement every 20 seconds.

“CARBON COPY transforms an unremarkable suburban car into an illuminated obelisk, a monument to North America’s car-centric culture.”
