If You Were Here - Philadelphia Street Art Photography
"If You Were Here I'd Be Home Now" reads this colorful rooftop mural in rainbow-hued block letters against a pale blue wall, turning a familiar real estate cliche into something achingly personal. To the left, a cascade of scattered alphabet letters tumbles down the adjoining wall like unspoken words searching for the right order. Another gem from Stephen Powers' iconic "A Love Letter" series along the Market-Frankford El in West Philadelphia, this piece distills the longing and humor of love into a single glance from a passing train window. The overgrown lot below and the utility pole cutting through the frame only add to the raw, unpolished poetry of art made for the street, not the gallery.
