Der aus Oakland/Kalifornien stammenden Streetartist Eddie Colla, dessen Arbeiten wir hier auf WHUDAT bereits vorgestellt haben, begab sich kürzlich zusammen mit Homie Nite Owl für ein gemeinsames Projekt in die Wüste Nevadas. Ziel ihres Trips war der bekannte „International Car Forest of the Last Church“ in Goldfield, der von Chad Sorg und Mark Rippie ins Leben gerufenen Autofriedhof-Attraktion, die mittlerweile an die 40 Fahrzeuge einfach so aus dem Wüstenboden ragen lässt. Die beiden Street Artists haben sich ein ganze Nacht an den Vehikeln des „Car Forest“ austoben dürfen. Die dopen Ergebnisse aus der Wüste Nevadas lassen sich direkt hier unten checken. Have fun:

On a whim, and perhaps out of a mix of boredom and curiosity, Oakland artists Nite Owl and Eddie Colla loaded up their car and drove 10 hours to the “International Car Forest of the Last Church” in Goldfield Nevada. The International Car Forest of the Last Church is a hallowed earthen automobile graveyard, with over 40 cars, trucks and buses. Arriving well after dark, to avoid the heat, Colla And Nite Owl got to work quickly aided only by head lamps and an incredible view of the Milky Way. For Colla it was just another perfect spot for his post apocalyptic portraits. A place straight out of science fiction, where the world had seemingly already ended. For Nite Owl it was just another excuse to leave Oakland and throw up a few more of his iconic owls. It was a night of giant spiders, animals no one could idenitfy and beef jerky.
