Welcome to the first part of my Hunt for Street Art in the Bonifacio Global City (BGC) in Taguig City, Philippines.
Many would consider BGC as the new Makati. It’s a fast developing CBD, with new high rise buildings popping up before I could even familiarize myself with my surroundings. Last December I moved into my new office here, hence I had more time after hours to explore what the place has to offer. As an appreciator of art, BGC proved to be a feast to my eyes. One of the first art works that captured my eye is this painting by Nate Frizzell. It’s called We Are What We Pretend To Be, and here are the thoughts that came into my mind as I looked at it.
No Dramas, they say, but just you wait…
Nonchalance, when deep inside bubbles of anxiety are brewing…
Fearless, because there’s really nothing left to lose…
Stoic, after hardening one’s heart from all the hurt and pain…
Boisterous laughter, and if you look closer there’s no joy in the eyes…
I’m ok, LOL, why do you ask, it was not about me, don’t you worry. Life’s a blast.
