Curatorial note
From the right foreground, a blue waste bin anchors the curbside composition. A brown plaid blanket and a purple jacket draped over a tangle of litter define a portable bivouac that persists along South Broad Street. Acquired January 2026, the work has occupied this curbside edge for 108 days, inviting contemplation of discarded matter as a lasting urban fixture within South Philadelphia.
