Someone Gave The City Eyes And Its Perfect (17 Photos)

The Magic of Googly Eyes: How Vanyu Krastev Brings the Streets of Bulgaria to Life
Walking the streets of Bulgaria, it’s easy to tune out the gray concrete and rusting pipes. But artist Vanyu Krastev refuses to ignore it. Armed with a pocketful of googly eyes, he treats the city’s broken infrastructure not as eyesores, but as an absolute playground. He spots the faces hiding in plain sight—a crack in the wall becomes a mouth, a broken bollard turns into a screaming monster. This isn’t just a fun prank; it’s a completely brilliant takeover of public space.
Recently, he even teamed up with kids from Dimitar Petrov Primary School in Sliven to spread the madness to Primorsko. They proved that street art doesn’t need to be massive murals or expensive paint. Sometimes, a couple of plastic eyes and a sharp sense of humor are all you need to completely change how people experience their daily commute. Check out how these kids joined the movement, turning ordinary shapes into hilarious characters.

“The idea is for people to have fun, to look for forms, developing their associative thinking. When one has that strive for creativity and the need to do it, my piece of advice is: follow your heart, grow that need, take good care of it… Then it will develop and bring inner satisfaction. And another piece of advice: don’t stick eyes wherever there are ones already.” – Vanyu Krastev
