It's time to take off and hunt for the next UFO sighting. Let's take a look again into media releases of popular magazines here in UAE. Another popular magazine in circulation is "Time Out Dubai". Let's take a look...
Searching thru the website, we browse topics related to Filipinos. One by one topics came out and here...(let the drum roll)...we choose another UFO sighting, the Pinoy Art Painter.
His name is Michael Turda and he has won one art competition here in UAE, Red Bull's "Art of Can" Competition. It's really an awe to know this Filipinos to win in international competitions like this. Around the world Filipinos are known to be great artists and painters. Here is one of them. Here is his picture and behind is his winning artwork.
Michael Turda and His Artwork
Michael Turda explains his masterpiece:
"It’s about the different nationalities of the UAE all rushing after a diet red bull can. This is supposed to be the last one in the country, and the mob is rushing to get at it. I wanted to show they’ve been running for days. You see Nationals, Indians, British, Filipinos, Pakistanis – but they’re all the same colour, everyone is pale. It’s like a social realism, it shows that all of these people are equal… sort of. Equal in their want for the can."
To Mr. Michael Turda, thank you for making fellow Filipinos in UAE proud!!!
