Love these two new wheatpastes apart of up-and-coming Philly street artist Symone Salib’s new The Artist Statement series. Each paste in the series includes a portrait of a local artist with a few words of wisdom from that artist!

Above, we have De’von Downes, “It costs me nothing to be a good person,” located at Thompson and Front streets in Fishtown. Below, Sean McCall, “Our hearts are one and the same. You, me, her, them, him – all of our brains,” located at 5th and Bainbridge streets in Queen Village.

Can’t wait to see who Symone has next!

See Symone’s early October tribute to Dr. Christine Blasey Ford and Anita Hill here!
