Automotive reimagines a motorcycle carburetor as the heart of a mechanical organism. Crowned with an array of precision-cut brass gears and mounted atop a rusted industrial cog, the structure pulses with kinetic potential. Though static, its form suggests motion—part engine, part clockwork relic. Like a fossilized engine of forgotten purpose, this piece honors machine-era craft and the hypnotic intricacy of analog mechanics.
