SURE, DUBLIN has a Caravaggio in the National Gallery and Francis Bacon’s studio in the Hugh Lane.
But if you want to see real art, you should go look at Dublin Bus’ psychedelic, Van Gogh Starry Night-esque seat pattern.
Busy, colourful, perfect for hiding any and all stains the passengers make on a daily basis.
Dublin-based artist Ruan van Vliet is celebrating this important element of Irish culture by putting the pattern on towels, mugs, and cushions.
Oh, and we must not forget the leggings:
Van Vliet says if this collection goes well, he’ll make another collection devoted to seat patterns of the DART.
Dat green. You can purchase Van Vliet’s Dublin Bus-themed goods here.
