I love Chris Labrooy's "auto elastic" series. The project, which began in 2014 with

Auto Aerobics,

has evolved into Tokyo, a plastic meditation on Japan's car culture. The new work features a digital sculpture made with a Honda NSX, Datsun 240Z, Datsun Skyline GTR, Toyota AE86 and some recognizable videogame characters. The background is inspired by

Kisho Kurokawa's Nakagin capsule tower.

Labrooy is a 21c John Chamberlain.
