Curatorial note
From the curb at 205 W Sheldon St, the rear view anchors the streetscape as a patient sculpture. The dealer frame reading SLOANE AUTOS and a PA plate situate the object within a commercial loop and municipal routine. Since its acquisition in January 2026, it has occupied the curb for 100 days, turning an ordinary tail light into a durable trace of the street.
