The found art Gear Mirror is a form of car art. It is made from the pressure plate gear of a car (the thing the starter engages to make the engine start to turn). It is powder coated in gloss black. Except for the finish and the hardware, the entire piece is made from found art. Even the mirror was retrieved from the trash. As such, these mirrors will have some scratches on them.There are a number of names for this kind of art. According to Wikipedia,
found object (French: objet trouvé) or readymade-describes art created from the undisguised, but often modified, use of objects that are not normally considered art, often because they already have a non-art function. Marcel Duchamp was the originator of this in the early 20th century.
Each mirror will come with a signed letter of authenticity. As more and more people collect my furniture art, the value will increase. This is an investment art that you can use and when needs be, even sell. It is my hope, that even in my life time, the pieces I am selling now will sell for many times their purchase price.
