Skeletons have long captured the imagination of street artists, symbolizing what lies beneath the surface—literally and metaphorically. From vibrant Día de los Muertos tributes to x-ray illusions, these 12 artworks explore identity, mortality, and transparency in public space. This collection spans cities like Crotone, Guadalajara, London, Melbourne, and New York—each mural or installation offering a different layer of urban anatomy.

1. The Architect — INSANE 51 in Crotone, Italy
This stunning double-exposure mural shows a woman’s portrait seamlessly shifting into a skeletal x-ray when viewed through red and cyan filters. The final full-color version merges the two, with precise anatomical detail in the skull and ribcage rendered in cool blue and overlaid by a serene red-tinted face.

2. La Lupita — Emmanuel Cuevas Visual in Guadalajara, Mexico
A rich, colorful tribute blending Frida Kahlo’s likeness with a central sugar skull. The mural wraps around architectural features like a window and flower-shaped grille. Vivid floral and traditional motifs surround the skeletal core.

3. Airhead — SHOK-1 in London, UK
A balloon floats upward—but this one’s no ordinary balloon. Rendered in smoky x-ray style, it’s shaped like a human skull. The artist is pictured holding the string, making the illusion complete.
4. Basquiat Tribute — By Banksy
This piece echoes the chaotic brilliance of Jean-Michel Basquiat’s signature figure, shown being frisked by two police officers. The skeleton-like character stands out in vibrant reds, yellows, and blacks, clashing with the grayscale officers.

5. Labels — By ItSkeletal
Seven skeletons stand shoulder to shoulder, identical in every way except for the chalked labels above them: white, black, straight, gay, religious, atheist, pirate. A visual reminder that beneath it all, we’re the same.

6. Radium — SHOK-1 in Le Locle, Switzerland
Painted on the side of a building in the birthplace of Swiss watchmaking, this mural by SHOK-1 features a luminous green x-ray of a hand delicately holding a pencil. Titled Radium, the artwork references both radioactive glow and the history of radium watch dial painters—many of whom suffered health effects from exposure. SHOK-1’s translucent technique draws attention to hidden systems, precision, and time, all central to the city’s identity.

7. Dino Skeleton — SCAF in Lorraine, France
A giant T. rex skeleton bursts from a crumbling wall, jaw wide open as if roaring. Painted with hyperrealistic shadowing, the mural interacts with a real red light fixture that looks like the dino’s eye.

8. Skeleton with Bird — SMUG in Frankston, Australia
A massive skeleton tenderly interacts with a blue bird perched on its finger. The mural stretches across a multi-story building, blending anatomical detail with an unexpected softness.

9. Selfie Skeleton — KITT in Melbourne, Australia
A playful, oversized skeleton lies sprawled across a city lot, taking a selfie. Complete with Converse-style sneakers and pink “hair”, the figure turns skeletal imagery into satire of modern life.

10. Skull Building — Suitswon in Brooklyn, New York, USA
This abandoned structure’s windows and wear form the eyes and teeth of a massive skull illusion. The artwork is minimal but haunting, using the building’s erosion as part of the design.
