Artist Nick De Pirro repairs a damaged car. He is wearing a fireproof balaclava, an article of clothing commonly worn by professional race drivers. The pit enclosure functions as a garage space for preparation and repair of cars during performances, and as a secure vault during normal gallery hours. An example of the paint scheme used on many of the cars is visible in the foreground. |
