Getting to Green: Routes to Roots is a multidisciplinary public art project in Philadelphia that encourages residents to explore the city’s green spaces through public transit. Led by artists Shira Walinsky and Laura Deutch, the initiative forges connections between urban dwellers and the city’s natural areas, promoting the discovery and rediscovery of these spaces. Deutch’s videos feature interviews with riders discussing travel and transit routes to green spaces, while Walinsky’s unique visual artworks, such as a bus wrap, bus posters, and hand-drawn printed maps, are used to inspire and activate riders.
