Artist Dora Cuenca Paints Her First Outdoor Mural in Northern Liberties

Love this new mural from Dora Cuenca located at 2nd and Brown streets in Northern Liberties!

“I am a Costa Rican artist,” Dora’s bio reads on her website. “My journey with motherhood and its many layers is deeply woven into my process and my art itself. I create to cultivate joy and empowerment.”

While she’s recently created a number of permanent indoor murals in the restroom area of Mission Taqueria (unrelated to the Streets Dept curated courtyard series of rotating works called Art at Mission,) this Northern Liberties mural is in fact Dora’s first outdoor mural! It was created with support from Freedom Apothecary, whose building the mural is on.

Here’s hoping we see more outdoor murals from Dora around Philly soon!
