Epitaph: The Healing of Art
Comic - Slice of Life
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, a city of art and brotherhood. Lathered with over 4,000 murals, it also drips with the excellence of tags, throw-ups, pieces, stickers, and even more types of graffiti and street art that isn’t nearly as celebrated. Many take their lives in their hands just to get up. And after a recent incident, a young girl who once resided in a neighborhood so full of life, now struggles with a death. This new loss hangs over Roz’s head like sneakers on telephone wires. Unsure of where to turn, she is soon gifted a surprise encounter that gives her the chance at a sense of closure very few ever get. Both for her and another. All she has to do now, is take a familiar, yet daring risk. Epitaph is a story of mourning and the immortality that comes from memory. Sometimes it’s not about going home again, but about making a place feel like home once more.
