These city portals are inspired by stoops, skylines, and city neighborhoods in Philadelphia and sprinkled across the United States. They feature textiles inherited from three generations of family, secondhand goods, pre- and post-consumer waste, and salvaged materials.
Listed dimensions reflect the framed size of the piece.
