Sharing

Sharing is one of two murals by artist Candy Coated that is part of Pedal Power, a multi-sited project designed to create awareness about Philadelphia’s Indego Bike Share program, the benefits of bike riding, and bike safety.

Located at 22nd and Tasker Streets in South Philadelphia, Sharing is a ground mural in the form of a huge sticker, shifting perspective from the traditional vertical wall mural image. The beautiful horizontal pool is full of color swirling visually, of vibrating bicycle wheel patterns, and of a huge unfurling leaf that seems to expand before your eyes as it grows into the sidewalk. Graphic in design, bright and swirling in visual effect, this mural shares its positive visual symbols of growth, personal freedom, and imagination colorfully with this community of South Philadelphia and the City of Philadelphia.

Pedal Power also features a wall mural at Progress Plaza in North Philadelphia, and 20 vinyl wrapped bikes designed by Mural Arts Youth. Community engagement activities complemented the projects, including screen printing workshops, mural related paint days, and bike safety workshops.
