Road Side Inn

This is one of eight small display boxes that have appeared along King Street recently. Installed by Open Field Collective, each features a small work of contemporary art. The exhibits change every six weeks, showcasing new artists and new works. This installation, titled "We Used to Eat Here", is by Spencer Barclay, an artist who works in miniature. His scenes are incredibly detailed - this one includes graffiti, and a working train signal lamp.
