Changing Philadelphia streets one image at a time

Mural #8

This is a multi part mural that wraps all around this structure. It portrays the invisibility, struggles, and vulnerability of Philadelphia’s homeless population. The mural shows how we should stand together as one to fight homelessness. The United States is one of the richest countries yet has a massive homelessness population. This raises awareness for the inequalities people face lack of employment opportunities, housing discrimination, mental disorders, etc. This mural uses parachute cloth to portray it’s image and is glued to the wall.
