A panorama of urban images by Tapio Snellman, a London-based filmmaker and architect, now adorns the wall of the northern end of the northbound lanes at the Cubao underpass. Work on the wall on the opposite side has begun.

The filmmaker born in Helsinki, Finland said, “The first thing I did was to create a 3D animation of the Cubao underpass, test the different speeds to know how many seconds you have from the beginning of the underpass to the other end at the underpass, to find out how many seconds and what happens in between.”

He imagined how the mural would look like from the perspective of a child sitting in a moving bus.

“It's like an animated film. It's really meant to be experienced on the move,” Snellman said.
