What is it?

This artwork has flashing lights.

The found split log of “Forces” may initially conceal the bright orange truck running light mounted on its left rear flank. But once a viewer approaches the artwork, a motion sensor causes the light to pulse ominously for a short while.

Its wood is stabilized with exactingly applied acid-free PVA.

Nearby garage lights or other microwave motion sensors may cause it to trigger when no viewers are present.
