Built in 1929, the home of the long gone Balsinger Ford Agency stands as one of the last surviving examples of Egyptian Art Deco architecture. It has been refurbished, and is now used for social events. I juxtaposed the vividly colored Egyptian symbolism with the Ford logo, two signs that seem at first to bear little relationship to each other. Yet the passage of time provides an odd linkage – the gods of ancient Egypt are now historical artifacts, and so is the Ford dealership that originally built this house of the gods.
