Mural Map

The first large-scale, publicly commissioned mural in the United States dedicated to Holocaust remembrance in a public space, installed at the Horwitz-Wasserman Holocaust Memorial Plaza, Philadelphia, PA.

A multilingual composition in 28 languages set in 17 scripts, including ancient and extinct alphabets, created from texts gathered across Philadelphia. It embodies the diversity and fragility of cultural memory, reflecting on displacement, cultural resilience, and erasure.

In collaboration with the Philadelphia Holocaust Remembrance Foundation and Mural Arts Philadelphia.
