Job van den Berg - Wall object - Car Crash 1:18

Car Crash 1: 18 In collaboration with a metalworking producer, Job van den Berg developed a production method that allows him to squeeze almost everything - from toy cars to delicate textures - into metal sheets. The Car Crashes are made by pressing a model car, scale 1: 18, under extremely high pressure into an aluminium plate. The different cars in combination with the unpredictable outcome make each work of art unique. - Signed, unique work of art - Model car 1: 18 - Aluminium - 38 cm x 28. 5 cm - Including suspension - 2019 About Job van den Berg Job van den Berg (1990) graduated from the Design Academy Eindhoven in 2015, is a Dutch furniture/product designer with a desire to push the boundaries of different materials and techniques.
