In the serene expanse of Debrecen’s Great Forest, Brazilian artist Dinho Bento has crafted a poetic installation that brings a new dimension to the landscape.
‘The Trees Also Sleep’ is a delicate fusion of art and nature, where sculptural forms and organic elements intertwine to evoke a sense of stillness and contemplation.
Known for his ability to merge public spaces with artistic narratives, Bento draws inspiration from the quiet energy of the forest, creating works that reflect on our connection to the natural world. Situated in one of Hungary’s most cherished green spaces, this installation invites visitors to slow down, immerse themselves in the environment, and experience the silent life of trees in a way they never have before.

8 Stunning Public Artworks That Make Montreal (Canada) Feel Alive
Content warning: Which one is your favorite?
Montreal’s streets are filled with stories — painted high on buildings, nestled on brick walls, or stretching across pedestrian zones. In this collection, a girl climbs toward the word “HOPE” on a side door mural, a tribute to persistence by The Art Therapy. Leonard Cohen gazes out over the city he loved from two towering portraits downtown, while children run along a warped, surreal street installation under a summer sky. A young girl with birdhouses balanced on her shoulder meets your gaze, and Paula Carreira’s mural reimagines music as a wall-bound homage. From comic-style character studies to vibrant dreamscapes, here are 8 pieces that capture the rhythm and feeling of Montreal’s art scene.

Buildings That Look Like They’re From a Dream (8 Photos)
From a church in Iceland that looks like a spaceship preparing for launch, to a house zipped open on a street in Milan — this collection showcases architecture at its most imaginative. Included are cliffside wartime refuges, storybook cottages, optical illusions, and centuries-old constructions that defy gravity or blend perfectly into mountains. These aren’t digital renderings — they’re real places from around the world.
More: 8 Beautiful Artworks That Seem to Grow From Nature
1. Unzipped Building — Alex Chinneck in Milan, Italy
A building facade appears to peel open like a jacket, with an oversized zipper curling away the wall to reveal its inner structure. This public installation by Alex Chinneck uses stone, concrete, and illusion to challenge how we perceive architecture.
2. King Alfred’s Tower — England
This red-brick triangular tower rises dramatically from the fog in Somerset, England. Built in 1772, it commemorates Alfred the Great and reaches over 49 meters high with a narrow footprint that adds to its illusion of impossibility.
3. Alpine Refuge — Monte Cristallo, Italy
Located at 2,760 meters in the Dolomites, this hidden wooden shelter from World War I is embedded directly into the rockface. Built for survival, it now appears like a dreamlike relic barely distinguishable from the mountain.
4. Hallgrímskirkja Church — Reykjavík, Iceland
This iconic Lutheran church, inspired by basalt columns and volcanic formations, dominates the Reykjavík skyline. Designed in 1937 and completed in 1986, its symmetry and scale evoke science fiction architecture.
5. The House That Sank — The Crooked House, UK

6. Organic Slate Roof House — Germany
This home with flowing lines and a wave-shaped slate roof blurs the line between fairy tale and high-end eco-architecture. Natural stone and soft curves give it a whimsical yet grounded appearance.
7. Cliff House — France (Built 1347)
Balanced between eras and gravity, this timber-framed upper house sits atop massive medieval stonework. Located in France and completed in 1347, it seems to hover above the road with support beams stretching underneath.
8. Rock-Built Homes — Sanaa, Yemen
Traditional Yemeni tower houses in Sanaa rise directly from the rock, combining ancient stone masonry with ornate white geometric window frames. The buildings appear both sculpted by nature and intricately human-made.These buildings bend our expectations of what architecture can be — not just structures, but expressions of ingenuity, adaptation, and creativity. Whether carved into mountains or dressed like zippers, they show that the line between surreal and real is thinner than it seems.

Street Artist Filite
“Morphos” by Filite in Taboão da Serra, Brazil, for Graffiti Contra Enchente.Dive into the vibrant streets of Taboão da Serra, Brazil, where “Morphos” by Filite comes alive. This piece captures the essence of metamorphosis, blending human features with nature’s beauty. As a passerby strolls, seemingly unaware, one can’t help but feel the poignant contrast of bustling daily life against art’s eternal stillness. In this lively urban canvas, Filite prompts us to pause and marvel, even if just for a fleeting moment. Street art, after all, bridges worlds, doesn’t it?
Filite (translation): Transforming through paint what I believe to be the human challenge. I don’t know about you, but day by day I realize just how fragile my convictions are. How insignificant my control over anything that doesn’t pertain to my own choices is. Painting fragmented portraits in butterflies is like freezing a moment, an action that’s impossible in real life… everything lives and vibrates in constant motion. But here, time has stopped 🙏 stopped for me and for anyone who dedicates a minute of life to connect with it.

Funny Fake Shadows! (20 Photos)
Damon Belanger, a graphic artist based in the San Francisco Bay Area, created a public art installation called “Fake Shadows” in Redwood City, California, USA. Funded by the Redwood City Public Art Program, this unique and playful street art project was realized in 2016.
Belanger’s “Fake Shadows” are a delightful interplay of reality and illusion. The artist added painted false shadows to common street objects, such as bike racks, benches, mailboxes, and even a manhole cover, turning them into whimsical creatures and objects. For example, a parking meter’s shadow becomes a monkey’s tail, a mailbox casts the shadow of a dragon, and a bike rack’s shadow transforms into a monkey on a tree.If you’ve had the chance to see Damon Belanger’s “Fake Shadows” in person, why not share your experience or better still, your photos in our Facebook group Your Street Art Utopia?
For more on Damon Belanger and his work, visit his website.
On your next urban adventure, remember this: street art is not only about murals on walls or graffiti tags. It’s an ever-evolving form of self-expression that can turn even a simple street fixture into a source of surprise and joy. So, keep your eyes open – the next creative twist could be just around the corner!

Get ready to be mesmerized by the fascinating world of 3D street art!
In today’s blog post, we’ll delve into the mind-bending realm of anamorphic masterpieces, as we explore how these optical illusions are created and what makes them so captivating. So, buckle up and let’s dive into the intriguing world of 3D street art!It’s all about perspective! The Art of Anamorphosis:
Creating Illusions Anamorphosis, the technique behind 3D street art, involves creating distorted images that only appear in their correct proportions when viewed from a specific angle or through a reflective device. This mind-blowing technique has been around since the Renaissance, but it wasn’t until the late 20th century that artists began applying it to the streets, transforming ordinary pavements into magical wonderlands.1

See how it is made and from other points of view: Stunning Optical Illusion Mural by ShozyThe Pioneers: Kurt Wenner and Julian Beever
We can’t talk about 3D street art without mentioning its pioneers, Kurt Wenner and Julian Beever. Both artists started creating anamorphic illusions on the streets of Europe in the 1980s, revolutionizing the street art scene. Their innovative works have inspired a new generation of artists to experiment with perspective and create their own jaw-dropping 3D masterpieces.3

The Process: From Sketch to Lifelike Artwork
Creating 3D street art is a labor-intensive process that begins with a detailed sketch of the desired illusion. Artists then use mathematical calculations and perspective techniques to determine the correct proportions for the final piece. Once the groundwork is done, they meticulously apply chalk or paint to the pavement, using shading and highlights to bring the illusion to life.5

Tree Stump Creature
A weathered tree stump near a lake is brought to life with two oversized googly eyes. Its gnarled roots resemble crawling limbs, making the stump appear like a wide-eyed forest creature peeking out from the shoreline.

These small interventions highlight the joy of noticing the overlooked and reshaping the mundane. Whether it’s a trash bin, tree, or bollard, nothing is safe from being googly-eyed — and we’re all better for it.

“The idea is 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.”

11. Flame Keepers — Mandi Caskey in Seneca Falls, New York
Mural by Mandi Caskey at 37 Fall Street in Seneca Falls, birthplace of the women’s rights movement in the United States. It shows two women passing a flame between their hands. The older woman wears a sash reading “1848 Vote for Women.” The background includes a crescent moon, clouds, and white butterflies.
Mandi Caskey: Tribute to the enduring fight for women’s rights across generations. This mural captures an intimate moment of exchange. A suffragette passing a living flame into the hands of a modern woman. The fire represents knowledge, resilience, and the ongoing struggle for justice and equity. The suffragette’s steady presence honors the women of Seneca Falls who fought to secure the right to vote, while the younger woman receives the flame with reverence and determination, carrying that light forward into a more inclusive future. Both figures rise from the water, a symbol of rebirth and the roots of Seneca Falls, where the first Women’s Rights Convention reshaped history. Her sash belongs to the past. Her buttons belong to the present. And the moths gather in remembrance, for everyone, who gave their life to the cause. Let’s keep the light burning for all.

Street Artist Giulio Masieri
By Giulio Masieri in Pordenone, Italy.Il Friuli: “The project – explains Masieri – was born in the period of the lockdown. While we were all closed in the house, I didn’t know how to use the time and the idea was born almost for fun. I left with a cat (who keeps an eye on the condominium where he lives, ed ) and then I thought about involving the Torre association to find other walls to decorate. So we hope to be able to invade the city. I chose the dog because I really wanted this design to be for everyone. And so I opted for man’s best friend “.

II. A Stencil Revolution: The Genesis of Banksy’s Distinctive Style
Banksy’s journey into the world of street art began on the streets of Bristol, England, a city known for its vibrant graffiti culture. As a teenager in the 1980s, he was part of a graffiti crew called the DryBreadZ Crew (DBZ). His early work, like much of the graffiti of the time, was freehand. However, an encounter with the law sparked a transformative shift in Banksy’s approach to street art.Legend has it that a young Banksy was hiding from the police under a garbage truck when he noticed stenciled serial numbers on the truck. The stencil technique piqued his interest, offering a faster, more efficient way to paint, allowing him to dodge law enforcement while still leaving his mark. This chance discovery would not only define his artistic style but would also revolutionize the street art scene.

Stenciling allowed Banksy to create intricate and detailed pieces with precision and speed. His works were more controlled, more refined, and more complex than the freehand graffiti that dominated the streets. This technique also lent his art a distinct aesthetic — one that was cleaner, sharper, and more visually striking. He could create multi-layered artworks, combining stencils with other media and incorporating pre-existing elements in the urban landscape into his installations.
In the early 2000s, Banksy moved from Bristol to London. His stenciled works started appearing on walls, bridges, and streets across the city, turning the urban landscape into an open-air gallery of his art. Each piece was a visual protest, a political statement, a satirical commentary. They challenged authority, poked fun at societal norms, and provoked public discourse, making Banksy a controversial figure in the art world.
Yet, it was precisely this controversy, coupled with his distinctive style and incisive commentary, that catapulted Banksy to international recognition. By turning to stencils, Banksy had not only found his artistic voice, but he had also found a way to make the streets echo with that voice. In doing so, he sparked a stencil revolution that would forever alter the course of street art.

III. Crafting Satire and Shadows: The Unmistakable Artistic Approach of Banksy
Banksy’s artistic approach, while grounded in the use of stencils, is far from one-dimensional. The street artist has developed a style that is as layered and nuanced as the messages he conveys. Delving into Banksy’s work reveals a masterful blend of satire, subversion, and sociopolitical commentary, all wrapped in a distinctive visual package that has become his trademark.Perhaps the most defining aspect of Banksy’s approach is his biting satire. With a keen eye for irony, Banksy often juxtaposes contrasting images and ideas to comment on societal issues. His works are full of dark humor and sharp wit, turning everyday scenes into powerful satirical statements. Whether it’s a rioter throwing a bouquet of flowers instead of a molotov cocktail or a young girl frisking a soldier, Banksy’s art challenges viewers to reassess their preconceived notions and question the status quo.

Equally important to Banksy’s approach is his use of subversion. He consistently undermines authority and disrupts conventional narratives, pushing against the boundaries of what is deemed acceptable or normal. This can be seen in his unauthorized installations in museums, his self-destructing artwork at an auction, or his dystopian theme park, Dismaland. Each act is a bold statement against institutional power and the commercialization of art.
On the visual front, Banksy’s art is marked by a striking use of black and white, with occasional pops of color. This minimalist color palette underscores the starkness of his messages and adds to the visual impact of his works. He also employs a careful play of light and shadow, giving depth and realism to his stenciled figures. Even when working on a flat surface, Banksy’s figures appear three-dimensional, as if they could step out of the wall and into the real world.
Moreover, Banksy often integrates elements of the urban environment into his artworks, transforming mundane objects and surfaces into significant components of his pieces. This creative use of the environment amplifies his art’s site-specific nature, making each piece a unique commentary on its context.
In essence, Banksy’s artistic approach is a dynamic interplay of style and substance. It merges form with content, aesthetics with message, and art with activism. Each piece is not just an artwork but a dialogue – a thought-provoking, boundary-pushing, and often uncomfortable dialogue that compels us to engage with the world in new and critical ways.
IV. From Shadows to Spotlight: The Unstoppable Global Impact of Banksy
Banksy’s rise to prominence is a testament to the power of street art as a medium for societal commentary. What began as stencilled tags in the back-alleys of Bristol has now gained international renown, resonating with audiences across the globe. His works are not merely confined to city walls, they have permeated popular culture, influenced political discourse, and even transformed the way we perceive and value art.One of the most significant aspects of Banksy’s global impact is how his art has bridged the gap between the street and the gallery. Banksy has successfully brought street art out of its perceived illegitimacy, forcing the art world to reconsider its boundaries and definitions. His works have sold for record-breaking prices at renowned auction houses such as Sotheby’s and Bonhams, showing that street art is more than capable of holding its own in the fine art market.
Banksy’s influence extends beyond the world of art, reaching into the realm of politics. His murals often tackle pressing issues like war, surveillance, consumerism, and inequality. His iconic pieces on the West Bank Barrier, for example, drew international attention to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, showcasing the power of art as a tool for political activism.
Moreover, Banksy’s works have become viral sensations, spreading rapidly across the internet and reaching millions of viewers. The digital age has allowed Banksy’s art to transcend geographical boundaries, amplifying its impact to an unprecedented level. Each new Banksy piece triggers a flurry of online discussions, debates, and interpretations, showing how art can engage and connect people in the virtual space.
Banksy’s global impact is also evident in the way his art has inspired a new generation of artists. His audacious style, combined with his success in challenging the status quo, has paved the way for aspiring street artists worldwide. The “Banksy Effect” is a testament to his influence, proving that art can thrive outside traditional institutions and that artists can maintain their anonymity and independence while reaching a wide audience.
Perhaps most importantly, Banksy’s global impact lies in the conversations his art starts. His works provoke thought and spark dialogue, encouraging viewers to question their surroundings and critically engage with societal issues. Whether it’s a mural on a wall, a painting in an auction house, or an image shared on social media, Banksy’s art continues to challenge, disrupt, and inspire, solidifying his position as one of the most influential figures in contemporary art.

V. Beyond the Wall: Banksy’s Multifaceted Artistic Portfolio
Banksy’s artistic portfolio, despite being shrouded in mystery and anonymity, is one that never ceases to evolve, surprise and provoke. Stretching beyond the confines of the traditional graffiti scene, Banksy has become a modern-day renaissance artist, demonstrating a remarkable ability to experiment with different mediums and platforms while consistently delivering his signature blend of satire, subversion, and social commentary.In 2010, Banksy ventured into the world of filmmaking with “Exit Through the Gift Shop,” a documentary that explores the relationship between commercial and street art. The film, which received an Academy Award nomination for Best Documentary, showcases Banksy’s knack for storytelling and his ability to critique the art world from within its own apparatus.

In 2015, Banksy took on an entirely new project: Dismaland, a dark, dystopian parody of Disneyland. This ‘bemusement park’ showcased ten new works from Banksy alongside pieces from 58 other artists. It was more than just an art exhibit; it was an immersive, interactive experience that critiqued the corporatization of leisure and the passive consumption of entertainment.
In recent years, Banksy has also shown an increasing interest in traditional painting, as seen in his ‘Mediterranean Sea View’ series. This set of oil paintings, auctioned to raise funds for a hospital in Bethlehem, combined classical techniques with Banksy’s trademark twist – in this case, life jackets washed up on shore, symbolizing the European migrant crisis. Such works demonstrate Banksy’s versatility and his willingness to adapt his craft to convey urgent messages.

Banksy’s more recent work during the COVID-19 pandemic, such as ‘Game Changer,’ displayed in Southampton General Hospital, is a testament to his timely engagement with current events. This piece, which pays tribute to healthcare workers, again shows Banksy’s ability to adapt to new contexts and media, while staying true to his roots in street art.
Whether it’s stencils on city walls, films, immersive installations, traditional paintings, or even the occasional piece of performance art (as seen in the shredding of ‘Girl with Balloon’), Banksy’s expanding portfolio reflects his boundless creativity, adaptability, and commitment to pushing the boundaries of what art can be and do. His work stands as a testament to the fact that art is not just about aesthetics, but can also be a vehicle for social change, critique, and dialogue.
VI. Shattering Expectations: Banksy’s Iconic Artistic Moments
When it comes to creating unforgettable artistic moments, Banksy is second to none. The anonymous artist has a track record of staging high-profile stunts that not only challenge conventional norms of the art world but also provoke public dialogue and reflection on broader societal issues.Perhaps the most iconic of all is Banksy’s 2018 Sotheby’s auction stunt, in which his artwork ‘Girl with Balloon’ self-destructed immediately after being sold for £1.04 million. Hidden within the ornate frame was a remotely activated shredder that left the artwork hanging in tatters. This audacious act was not just a prank; it was a commentary on the commodification of art and the market’s ability to dictate the value of artworks. The shredded artwork was later renamed ‘Love is in the Bin,’ and in a twist of irony, it became even more valuable after the stunt.

Another moment that captured global attention was Banksy’s 2013 New York residency, ‘Better Out Than In.’ For 31 days, Banksy unveiled a new work each day across the city. On one of these days, he set up a stall selling signed original Banksy canvases for just $60. The unsuspecting buyers had no idea of the true value of the artworks they were purchasing, challenging the notion of art’s value being tied to the artist’s name.
And again: In 2015, Banksy shook the art world again with the opening of Dismaland, a dark, dystopian parody of Disneyland. This temporary art project in the seaside resort town of Weston-super-Mare in England featured a fairy castle in ruin, a boat pond full of asylum seekers, and two juggernauts performing ballet, among other installations. It was a stark critique of consumer culture, inequality, and the failings of capitalism.
Banksy’s ‘Devolved Parliament,’ a satirical painting depicting the UK House of Commons filled with chimpanzees, is another example of his timely and pointed commentary. The artwork, which was created in 2009 and exhibited just before the original Brexit date in March 2019, sold for a record-breaking £9.9 million at Sotheby’s in October 2019.
And as mentioned before who can forget Banksy’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic? His ‘Game Changer’ artwork, depicting a young boy playing with a nurse doll, was a tribute to healthcare workers on the front lines of the crisis. It was later sold at auction for £16.8 million, with all proceeds going to the NHS.
Through these iconic moments, Banksy continues to use his art to subvert expectations, provoke thought, and challenge the status quo, leaving an indelible mark on the world of contemporary art.
VII. Enduring Impressions: The “Banksy Effect”
The “Banksy Effect” is a term coined to describe the remarkable influence that Banksy has had on the art world and beyond. It refers not just to his transformation of street art into a globally recognized and highly coveted form of expression, but also to the way his work has reshaped public discourse around key societal issues.Banksy’s provocative approach to art has undoubtedly pushed the boundaries of what is considered acceptable or valuable in the art world. By using public spaces as his canvas, Banksy has democratized access to art, making it available to everyone, not just those who frequent art galleries or auction houses. This has led to a broader acceptance and recognition of street art as a legitimate form of artistic expression, with cities around the world now boasting thriving street art scenes.
Beyond the art scene, Banksy’s satirical, often politically charged works have also had a profound impact on public consciousness. His art has served as a powerful commentary on issues such as war, capitalism, consumerism, and inequality, sparking public dialogue and forcing viewers to confront uncomfortable realities. By leveraging the power of art for social commentary, Banksy has inspired a new generation of artists to use their work as a tool for social and political activism.
Moreover, Banksy’s commitment to anonymity has further fueled his appeal and added a layer of intrigue to his work. Despite his global fame, Banksy has managed to maintain his anonymity, a feat that has only added to his mystique and led to widespread speculation about his identity. This anonymity has also allowed Banksy to remain a subversive figure, unbound by the expectations or constraints typically placed on renowned artists.
The “Banksy Effect” encompasses the far-reaching influence of Banksy’s art on both the art world and society at large. His innovative approach to art, combined with his incisive social commentary, has left an enduring legacy that continues to inspire and provoke. Whether it’s through a simple graffiti piece on a city wall or a high-profile stunt at an auction house, Banksy’s impact is indelible, echoing throughout contemporary culture and continuing to challenge our perceptions of art and its role in society.
VIII. Unmasking the Enigma: Decoding Banksy’s Enduring Allure
As we delve into the intriguing world of Banksy, we come to realize that his enigmatic persona, revolutionary approach to art, and the courage to challenge societal norms are not just the hallmarks of his unique artistry, but also the underlying factors of his enduring appeal.Banksy’s anonymity has allowed him to create art that is pure and unaffected by the bias of celebrity. It keeps the focus on the art and the message it conveys rather than the artist. This could well be one of the reasons why his art, despite its simplicity, resonates on a universal scale. The unknown identity of the artist also adds an element of intrigue and mystery, making each new artwork a topic of global conversation.
