Artist’s Statement
Cars, a man-made object, were designed for a purpose as mundane as transport - but Cam believes they can create a connection, a memory and a feeling of happiness, comfort, freedom or power. He invites you to remember the feeling when you bought your first car and the freedom it presented. To remember the drive to the beach you would take every summer with your family. To recall running to your car on a cold wet day after work and finding yourself embraced by the warmth of this weird, mechanical machine.
