Printmaker Manu Berry has printed images of the street's stone buildings, in the heart of the town's historic precinct, on to empty wooden boxes.
The streetscape took about a month to complete and challenged him "in all sorts of ways".
"I just ... had the idea of it and had to build it in so many components," he said.
While working on it, he visualised the room in the gallery and it was a "great feeling" to see it installed.
Berry, who has recently shifted back to Dunedin, has exhibited regularly in galleries, particularly in the South Island.
His mother is Otago painter and printmaker Pauline Bellamy.
Stone Flowers, which has a limestone theme, is his first exhibition at the Forrester.
It opened on Saturday and runs until September 5.
