This small, colorful constellation of bottles and bedsprings accompanies a painted Ziggy Stardust-esque figure along a low chainlink fence on a quiet residential street just around the corner from the main drag of Truth or Consequences. Blink, and you might miss it, but it’s worth the stop.

The art fence is on Sims Street, between Daniels Street and South Fochs Street. You will find it across from the Healing Waters Plaza. She may be small, but her collection of glass, rust, and color is mighty.

Know Before You Go

Downtown T or C, as the locals call it, is not a very large grid to explore. You can walk all the short streets in about a half hour and see among them a variety of colors and local art. You can also hit up a secondhand store or two, and even grab a malt or a pastry at one of the local eateries. If you time it right, you can join their Friday night art walk for an even bigger treat.
