These buildings are the only possible place that provides people with a home, a refuge and safety for themselves and their children. But it’s even harder to get rid of the stigma when you live in such a place.

By Chemis in Plzen, Czech Republic for Wallz Festival DEPO2015.Chemis: This painting is inspired by the history of the house in Jateční Street in Pilsen, which was used for housing low-income families and was notoriously known as the Romani ghetto. These socially excluded areas are like a vicious circle, which seems to be a difficult challenge for politicians and local residents.

Final Reflection: A Look into the Future
Art has come a long way from being confined to galleries and museums. Today, it lives on our streets, in our neighborhoods, and even on our homes. To imagine a future where this is the norm inspires hope for a more colorful, expressive world.
A member of Street Art Utopia on Facebook wrote this lovely piece about the future when we were just beginning our journey:
“My son, do you want to hear something strange?
– Yes! What?
You know the new tree painting we did on the garage last week… Until around the year 2050, people generally didn’t have paintings on houses!
– What? Were they gray?
Well, yes, many were. Often they would paint houses in just one color, like blue or yellow, but very rarely more than one or two colors and almost never with pictures. Most apartment buildings and government offices were gray. Sometimes artists would paint tunnels, gray municipal buildings, and so on, but the pictures were washed away! By the government!
– …Was art forbidden? No, but it had to be in special buildings only. Some people thought houses shouldn’t be painted on, except in one pale color all over.
– Wow… How dull.
Yes, my son. Now let’s put on our jackets and go pick some fruit.”

Banksy’s in London: Unmasking the Zoo of Modern Society (9 Photos)
Banksy, the provocative yet loved street artist, has once again taken to the streets of London to make a powerful statement.
His latest series of nine artworks, scattered across the city, explores the theme of captivity and control, drawing parallels between zoo animals and the human condition. Each piece, meticulously crafted and strategically placed, challenges the viewers to question the boundaries between freedom and confinement in our society.More: 24 artworks by Banksy: Who Is The Visionary of Street Art

This blogpost features a collection of Dirty Van Art, where artists create temporary artworks on the dust-covered surfaces of vans. These creative street art pieces turn something as mundane as dirt into an artistic canvas, showcasing intricate drawings and clever designs.

Bringing Godzilla to Life: A Giant Artwork on Japan’s Iwayagawachi Dam
In December 2024, the Iwayagawachi Dam in Japan turned into a giant canvas for an amazing piece of reverse graffiti featuring Godzilla.
This project, called the “Godzilla in Saga Dam Art Project Powered by Kärcher,” marked two special anniversaries: the dam’s 50th birthday and Godzilla’s 70th birthday.A team of experts from Kärcher used powerful high-pressure cleaning tools to carefully wash away dirt, moss, and algae from the dam’s surface. By doing this, they created a huge picture of Godzilla towering over a city. The team followed a “paint by numbers” method, where climbers hanging from ropes used laser markers to outline the design before cleaning.
The reverse graffiti technique used on the dam demonstrates how it could be applied to underutilized structures or make large-scale art more accessible and sustainable.

“Trine” by Alexandre Hopare Monteiro at Danmarksgade 29 in Aalborg, Denmark for KIRK Gallery. Photos by R&PÃ and Nico Giquel.
HOPARE about the mural: A Mysterious Subject – Immersed in her thoughts, “Trine” stands before us with a mix of melancholy and dignity. The delicate features of her face contrast remarkably with the sturdy musculature of her torso. The action is almost frozen in time. What is ultimately the subject of the mural? Is it the intricate arrangement of her long hair strands or the pensive gaze of the model? Is it the interior of a room or the introspection of the human soul? The visible or the invisible? In five days, I have interpreted one of the masterpieces from the golden age of Danish painting, Ludvig August Smith. This unique synthesis of neoclassicism and romanticism remains a mystery.

Sasha Korban: This mural supports the idea of finding a good balance in life. The young fragile girl reflects the human’s internal harmony together with the joy of existence.

KTHR: Here’s one of my paintings of Festival EFÍMURS which I paid tribute to the sacred patron of the fishermen. It’s been an honor for me to represent this character in one of the main buildings in town. Here in L’Ametlla de Mar, Saint Peter is celebrated every year and even though the new generations aren’t very religious the tradition and the believing of this entity is still important for all the fishermen. Represented with his characteristic white beard, his two keys and the pope’s ring also known as the fishermen ring. Wearing the actual yellow suit for fishermen and with the small detail of the fishing moment painted bellow this is how I pictured Saint Peter and hope everyone likes it as much as I enjoyed painting it for my hometown.

Out of the (more than) 400 applications, 2 artists were chosen: one artist from Gran Canaria and Djoels. We were given a 13-meter-high by 8-meter-wide wall to work on. For 5 days, we were given a tour, information, and the opportunity to get to know the town. It’s a harbor town surrounded by mountains, slightly bigger than Egem but with a similar mentality. Everyone knows everyone, and stories spread quickly. People take care of each other, and history is kept alive.
Gabriel, my model, a retired kind man with a characterful gaze, stood out to me the most. He spent his life at sea, months away from home catching fish. I heard thrilling stories, including those of women and children who stayed on the mainland, fearing whether their father would return safely. Now he makes miniature boats. A true artist!
Every day, I ate fish, learned how to clean and prepare fresh fish. I walked in the harbor and then in the mountains. I tasted the food they made on the boats when they were away from home for months, sometimes with only 3 ingredients. And yet, it was delicious!
For two weeks, I lived like most people here, adopting a sort of integrated intermittent fasting, taking siestas, and enjoying pintxos (local tapas). I quickly adapted to the lifestyle here, but I still miss my home, my dog, and my loved one immensely!
I think after reading this, the work speaks for itself. Now, I just need to enjoy Bilbao a little longer, and then I’ll head back home on Saturday, towards my steak with fries and the West Flemish language.

The Symbolism of Birds in Street Art

HERA, a German street artist, has made a name for herself with murals that blend fine art and graffiti.
After stepping away from HERAKUT, she now works independently, creating large-scale art that often features humans and animals in dreamlike, emotional scenes. HERA’s style mixes detailed brushwork with the raw energy of street art, inviting viewers to connect with the deep stories her work tells. She continues to inspire with her unique, heartfelt murals found in cities around the world.
Old collection of work by the duo HERAKUT: Street Art by Herakut – A Collection
“Wild Child” by HERA in Civitacampomarano, Italy.
HERA about Wild Child: Choosing a stray cat as the hero of a piece of public art is my way of attempting a balance between the existing monuments of some pompous monarchs or war generals and the real inhabitants of a place. I want the little ones, the real ones, the actual souls of the streets to be recognized. I want to pay homage to the ones who surely have fought through their fair share of struggles, and have their scars to prove it, but chose to for the most days just quietly exists, mind their business and remind us to enjoy even the uneventful days.
By HERA in Vincennes, France for Le Point Millepages.
Translation of the murals text: The children asked the fox how to escape from everyday life. He answers “it’s easy, all you need is to open a book”

By HERA in Karlstad, Sweden for Karlstad Street Art curated by Huderrederre.
HERA: Because I work when I freestyle i came to the wall without a sketch and spend my time listening to what locals said about Karlstad. Every detail of this artwork was inspired by some info I came across at the spot, but also its overall theme about hospitality.
The words on the upper left side read “Sola i Karlstad” which was the nickname of one particularly friendly tavern waitress and innkeeper in the city back in the 18th century; Eva Lisa Holtz. I think it’s absolutely amazing that the city even has a statue for her. How many cities in the world can say that they consider a sunny disposition and kindness as monument-worthy traits? I just love that!
So, that and the fact that being a good host is a ton of effort, I felt like I should dedicate this mural art to everyone who uses their time on earth to nurture others. And to unite others, no matter how far apart they usually sit.
By HERA in Aschaffenburg, Germany for Stadtbau Aschaffenburg.
