“All Power to All People” is a temporary prototype monument by @hankwillisthomas for @monument_lab – A public art intervention around identity and representation in Philadelphia. It is placed as a symbol, the artist adds “to highlight ideas related to community, strength, perseverance, comradeship, and resistance to oppression”. —- ?: @steveweinik #MonumentLab #PhillyMuralArts #Art #Philly #Explore215 #DiscoverPHL #VisitPhilly
