People in my neighborhood have been struggling to get a burnt-out car 311'd for months, so someone decided to just give up and incorporate it into the scenery. #philadelphia#philly#nwphilly#manayunk#roxborough

The charred remains of a burnt out car. A sign is affixed to it, which reads: 

Urban Relic: Audi on Leverington

Artist Unknown

Metal, Plastic, Fabric, and Ash

Leverington & Main Street, Philadelphia

September 2024

Once a symbol of mobility and status, this Audi now rests in etemal park, its final destination determined by an expired sticker, a ripped bumper, and the conspicuous absence of a license plate. On September 10th, the vehicle embraced a new artistic medium - flame - offering a fast-forwarded glimpse of urban decay. As days pass, the installation evolves: doors ajar, hood up, perhaps a new trinket added by a passerby. A poignant reminder that life around it moves on, while this relic rusts, stalls, and absorbs the passing glances of the curious.
