Japan may have some strange pimped out semis (blogged on Neatorama here), but they certainly don't have the monopoly on vehicle art. Behold the creative truck art of Pakistan:
Even though truck art isn’t unique to Pakistan anymore, nowhere else in the world is the practice so pervasive. In a country where the per capita income is barely north of $2,000, it is surprising to see fleet owners (the trucks aren’t owner-operated) spend $3,000-$5,000 per truck for structural modifications that convert these gas-guzzling, smoke-spewing, road-dominating monstrosities into beautiful moving canvases covered in poetry, folk tales, and ‘…religious, sentimental and emotional worldviews of the individuals employed in the truck industry,’ making it one of the biggest forms of representational art in the country.
Alex, You'll have to mention The Jeepney's of the Philippines, in a future post.
Like rolling discos. :)
