This Poor-Racer Art Car sculpture will exist for just 24 hours, - from midnight Saturday 14 March to midnight Sunday 15 March. Thats a longer life span than most flies.

The dramatically customised car is typical of Hirschhorn’s low budget transformations, and Poor-Racer has been developed specifically for Christchurch as part of the New Zealand-wide One Day Sculpture series. Hirschhorn says it references the global enthusiasm for car customisation evident in the lowered, louder, brighter and bolder DIY modifications seen parading city streets.
