Colorful art covers Pasig River pumping stations

Pasig River ferry passengers' daily commute is now enlivened by large murals painted on the facades of nine of the pumping stations on the river. 

A project of the Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) in partnership with the British Council,  One Redesign Manila, Davies Paints and the San Miguel Holding Corporation, the Pasig River Art for Urban Change invited several artists to decorate the stations with their work.

Used as a canvas for public art are the Arroceros, Aviles, Binondo, Escolta, San Francisco, Makati, Paco, Quiapo, and Valencia pumping stations.

Participating artists are Archie Oclos, Cristina Lina, Malarko Hernandez, Ged Alangui, Julius Sebastian, Kris Abrigo, Luigi Almuena, Ralph Eya and Team Manila Graphic Design Studio. — BM, GMA News
