The transformation of five traffic signal control boxes or “invisible canvases” around the Northeast Corridor is intended to promote pride and unite the community in the area. These boxes are collectively called The Big Picture Project, a public art initiative that uses the gateways of the community to share the stories of the neighborhood.

This artwork pays homage to the Stratford Movie Theater, which once stood near this location and was one of the multitude of neighborhood movie theaters throughout the city of Indianapolis. The design features the facade of the movie theater; layered on top of the facade are theater tickets that give details of what it might have cost to attend a movie at the time the Stratford was still standing.
