Stalled Vigil, Wakeling Street t West Philadelphia

Curatorial note

Seen at the curb on Wakeling Street, the red sedan anchors the streetscape as a patient, enduring fixture. The rear bumper dent frames the composition, registering a material history of contact with the urban environment. Its proximity to a round street drain and a square grate in the foreground situates the work within the routine mechanics of city life. Acquired in January 2026, the piece belongs to the West Philadelphia collection, preserving long-duration moments of municipal life.
