Curatorial note
Seen along the Nineteenth Street corridor, the work fixes a winter surface between railing and curb. The elongated streetlight shadow traversing the ice emphasizes texture and surface conditions, creating a formal counterpoint to the irregular footprints across the crust. Acquired January 2026 by Parks & Recreation, this piece remains a quiet record of recurring sidewalk conditions within North Philadelphia.
