One of the most striking murals I found on my visit to Bonifacio Global City (BGC) , Manila, was this bright blue mural painted in 2017 for the Art BGC festival organized by the Bonifacio Arts Foundation (BAFI).
It's located at One Global Place building, on the corner of 5th Avenue and 26th Street, and was a collaborative work by ASEAN-ROK - Korean artists and artist from other Southeast Asian countries plus over one hundred local and expat volunteers.
The main Artists were: Auggie, Bunga, Bows, Xuan Ka, Perol, Pesey, Cyrus, Zero, Miguel, Nemo, Kim Si Yeong, Lee Sun Il, Hyun Nam, and Park Young-Gyun as Project Director
In each shelf are symbols from the different ASEAN countries (Association of Southeast Asian Nations).

Fascinating and detailed mural -- such a remote location! Murals are everywhere.
ReplyDeletebest... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Thanks Mae, very true there are murals all over the world now.
Delete...'Beyond Borders, Peaceful Voyage,' tell that to Donny!
ReplyDeleteI was going to ask "Who's Donny", but then I clicked. Lol, thanks Tom.
DeleteWe are mural-deficient in Canada! And more’s the pity.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pity David, they attract a lot of tourists too.
DeleteWhat an incredible and unique collaboration. I immediately recognized the ASEAN symbol even before you showed it up close. I think you found a pure gem in this mural, Sami!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Elizabeth. There's so much to look at in this mural, I was fascinated.
DeleteThese are wonderful
ReplyDeleteThanks Cloudia.
DeleteI love the murals. You know, they're so beautiful and makes these buildings so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks Maribeth, they make building looks much brighter indeed.
DeleteLooks huge.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't find the measurements but it occupies at least 10 floors of that building. Thanks Jim.
DeleteNice 3-D effect.
ReplyDeleteThanks Revrunner.
DeleteBeautifully done!
ReplyDeleteThanks William.
DeleteWhat an amazing way to transform an otheriwse dull office? block
ReplyDeleteQuite true Carole, everything looks so much brighter.
DeleteDearest Sami,
ReplyDeleteVery special murals you show us here and I do presume this is in Manilla? You mentioned street names but no city nor country... Readers would want to know where.
Sending you hugs,
Mariette
Thanks Mariette, yes it's in one of Manila's districts. Added that to post.
DeleteCool mural
ReplyDeleteThanks Adam.
DeleteWhat an amazing mural this is.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Thanks Jan :)
DeleteReninds me of a game show ages ago here in United States, Hollywood Squares.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on
Sounds like an interesting game Dora. Enjoy your coffee.
DeleteThat is a great mural and I found your previous post very interesting.
ReplyDeleteThanks Diane :)
DeleteFascinante!!
ReplyDeleteObrigada Pedro.
DeleteThat is so interesting. And what a great idea! There seem to be representations from all over the globe.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dee. At least the representations are from the "Asean" countries.
DeleteBeautiful, I think you can stand there for a long while studying this mural into detail.
ReplyDeleteYes, we were there for a while admiring the various symbols and trying to match them to various countries.
DeletePretty good. While Australia is a member of ASEAN, I think we are different status members to the original group.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea Andrew, so I've just been reading about it.
DeleteBusy shelves! Interesting to see the symbols for the different countries - though I can't identify them all.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't figure out all of them either, but found it interesting that there were so many piles of books. Thanks Debbie.
Deletenicely done.
ReplyDeleteThanks Klara.
DeleteThis is a striking mural Sami.
ReplyDeleteThanks Marianne.
