Front End Distortion, Jackson Street Corridor — South Philadelphia

Curatorial note

Seen at the Jackson Street curb, the piece sits at the threshold between street and sidewalk. The front-end deformation and crushed bumper reveal a material history of impact in this transit-rich corridor, with parallel streetcar rails running along the curb just beneath. Acquired January 2026, the work remains part of the South Philadelphia collection, inviting reflection on how mobility and street infrastructure intersect.
