Discovery Behind the Jeepney Mural

There are things that catch your attention when it comes to art and then there is that one that really stands out. You need to dig up and find its original story and in the case of a mural painting that covers the current renovation of the Ayala Museum featuring a jeepney painting that had an overloaded passenger it really caught my attention how it was depicted being set in a local province in the Philippines. But it gets interesting when I was getting my friend’s stuff in order to bring it to his temporary place before he goes back to his home country. Interesting enough that all his stuff was sitting in my room almost nine years ago and while I was preparing I came across an old postcard from 2001 that made it more than just a jeepney image.
