Curatorial note

Seen at the curb along West Erie Avenue, the white cargo van anchors the street with its headlamps facing the camera. The hood bears small brown rust specks and the windshield is dusty, while the grille displays a Chevrolet emblem. Acquired in January 2026, the work has occupied this curb as a patient record of street life on West Erie Avenue.
