Phool Patti Truck Art Collective, a Pakistani-based company, made a truck art mural at the Al Mansoura Metro Station in Doha, Qatar, ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup as an ode to Pakistan’s cultural heritage.
It posted pictures of its beautiful artwork on Instagram on Monday, and Ali Salman Anchan, the founder of the company, stated that the mural of the Pakistani truck art took two weeks to complete.
He introduced the unique artwork to the public on social media and said “Ladies and gentlemen, here is our truck art mural in Doha. We are invited to an official partnership with the Qatar museum for its local program, Jedarart, in Doha this year. The Phool Patti team, under the leadership of founder Anchan and other members such as Mumtaz Ahmad and Muhammad Amin, is promoting Pakistani truck art and the beauty of Pakistan’s heritage”.
Anchan also mentioned that the mural was painted beside Indian truck art.
He said, “The best part of Jedariart is the Pakistani truck art mural and the Indian Truck mural, which are placed side-by-side. I am sure people will get more ideas from both artworks”.
