This ongoing series examines the relationship between self-service car wash bays and the adjoining landscapes. In their intended function, these semiprivate bays take the place of the family driveway to restore our cars’ fleeting luster. The spaces appear secluded as they are captured at night with exposures timed around the fluctuating cycles of street lights and traffic patterns. Variations in seasonal weather conditions, as well as the shifting balance of interior and exterior light transform these ubiquitous spaces into something unfamiliar.
