Street Art Love

I recently took a fancy on street art and murals. Enough that I started a Facebook page dedicated to it. I called the page Writings On The Wall. Writings on the Wall is a tribute to public art and their artists (unknown, in many cases ) "because they would be soon gone before we know it." 

Murals and street art are fleeting- it is the sad fact of it. But they do a lot to make an otherwise drab place beautiful and artsy.  It will be a shame not to have a memory of these work of arts painstakingly painted by their artists.  

For my first street art photography, I went to Bonifacio Global City. Being a new business center with new, beautiful buildings, it seemed an unlikely place to have street art and murals. Surprisingly, for 2 consecutive years, they have commissioned  local and foreign artists to paint lovely murals.  Here's my top 10 favorite (not in particular order) :

(1) A boy and a tiger

2) Called "DAVID'S HAND" in the artist's website, but is referred to as "IN THE CLOUD" in most blogs I read
Location: 7th Avenue (at Mango Tree Bar) , Bonifacio Global City, Taguig, Metro Manila, Philippines
