About the Project 

Wide Open features a design that speaks directly to the artist’s view of Philadelphia. Themes include the concept of brotherly love, family and friends, a love of skateboarding and music, and the complex interaction of danger and beauty. The struggle of loss, hope and pride in where one lives intertwine in this striking mural.
