Bene’ Michelle currently has on exhibit her private collection of Automotive and Motorcycle Dioramas at the San Diego Automotive Museum in Balboa Park. Her art pieces have been on loan and rotated into exhibits for the past 7 years. These models are also offered for private art collectors.
Recently Bene’s Patented Motorcycle Gas Tank Table was added to the Main Display area of the National Motorcycle Museum in Iowa. It is between two Legendary icons of Motorcycle History. To its far left side is an Evel Knievel tribute and to its far right is the world famous Captain America motorcycle from Easy Rider! ” I am so honored to have one of my favorite art pieces displayed in between these Two Wonderful exhibits! How interesting it is that one of the Celebrity signatures on my Motorcycle Table was Robbie Knievel!”
Black Karma Sculpture was selected as one of 65 art pieces for the Annual Art Maui show, March 24 through April 20 2014 held at the MACC/SHAFFER Gallery, Maui. The Photos of Black Karma were taken before the Artist Reception. It was one of the highlights of the opening night!
“I am excited about the new direction of my performance sculptures and the many innovative themes to come. No limits!! My current works reflect only but a glimpse of future concepts.”
Check out quick teaser video of Hot Lava performing on the video link and on YouTube.

“Since 1992, I have been creating indoor furniture pieces. My first Tailpipe Chair Prototype has been shown at Sturgis Museum since 2004. Many other people are now doing furniture pieces, but I definitely was one of the first to have 7 Patents utilizing the many wonderful features of our much loved rolling sculptures. Once again I am taking my art to the next level.”
Bené Michelle and her latest concepts for Motoration® are called Functional Performance Sculptures. They will be offered in 3 variations.
The first variation much like Black Karma, will be a custom classic vintage style featuring exciting themes in a smaller more compact size to accommodate limited space

Currently, Hot Lava and Black Karma are her first completed pieces of her new design style. Both sculpture styles are available for custom commission in any theme you desire.
Hot Lava is designed with an actual motorcycle frame, gas tank, engine parts, custom tailpipe, a fabricated metal flamed back wheel and custom airbrush paint by local Maui fabrication crew.
All lighting artistry effects are by Jeff Bundy. Jeff also plays a key part with Bené in much of the current and future design mechanics. In addition, each sculpture plays to sound and music making these absolute performance geared pieces, able to entertain an intimate group or a large party gathering.
