Curatorial note

Seen from the foreground car hood, the alley’s perspective extends toward a distant vanishing point between a left-hand stone facade and a pale industrial block. The curb’s litter and the network of wires frame a quiet rhythm of daily circulation in West Oak Lane. Acquired January 2026, the piece remains a steady presence within the neighborhood’s urban texture.
