Pakistan Truck Art Exhibition 2018 in Stockholm, Sweden was successfully held in Central Stockholm in Sweden. The event was magnificently organized by PICSS – Pakistan Information and Cultural Society Sweden. PICSS is two years old today working to portray a positive image of Pakistan in Europe generally and in Sweden particularly.
Pakistan Truck Art Exhibition was held for the very first time in Sweden. It gained attraction from a vast number of visitors including tourists, swedes, Indian and Pakistani community. The dominant feature of this exhibition was the display of the collection of Truck Art. Various vehicles like a rickshaw and truck were displayed in vibrant colors. Moreover, different other household collection like the lantern, trays, mugs, mirrors, souvenirs, storage boxes, kettles and candle stands were also a part of an exhibition on a particular theme.
There was also a display of traditional Pakistani bangles and handbags.
The catchiest piece of art was the posters of Stefan Löfven, an active Swedish Prime Minister, and Zlatan Ibrahimoviƈ, a well renowned Swedish Football player.
An Exhibition also carried the only book written on Pakistan Truck Art by the name of On Wings of Diesel by Jamal J. Elias. On wings of Diesel takes us a journey through the fascinating world of Pakistani Truck Decoration. This book depicts developed Pakistani artisanal industry in a very artistic manner.
Musicians from Folk Studio were there in the exhibition to entertain the audience. Besides musicians, the dancing crew also performed dances on various upbeat bhangra songs.
As no Pakistani event or meet up is completed without Food. So, food was also an important part of this event as well. Food stalls were there presenting food covering the typical taste of all provinces. All visitors including foreigners, Pakistanis, ladies, and children enjoyed the delicious tasty meals. And appraised the event very much. They all left the hall with happy faces and a good positive image of Pakistan.
