One Horse Power
Since November 2011, a team of artist gathered in the Malibu mountains, to work on an abandoned car (a silver SATURN). The goal was to transform this abandoned car, by repurposing it into a sculptural piece of art.
The idea for One Horse Power, first came from the artist Diana Wong. Diana then recruited fellow artists Rachel X Hobrieigh, Ricardo Mendoza, Lix Ramirez, Lester Cheng as well as and filmmaker Robert Stadd and composer Shannon Michael Terry.
The journey of One Horse Power unfolds like an adventure novel. Where we fought elements such as: high winds, heat, cold and even gravity to create it. Each of the artists worked together in a collaboration to dismantle, tow, repurpose, and paint an abandoned car that became like a Great Phoenix rising from it’s own ashes transforming into a mythical Pegasus complete with chariot.
As a team of ethnically diverse artists we worked together- to conceive, design and then transform what was previously an eye sore into this sculptural piece... One Horse Power.
