8 Times Seth Painted What Childhood Really Feels Like
Content warning: Which one is your favorite?
In Aalborg, Denmark, a boy curls up with a crayon on the side of a building, and in Le Mans, France, a child unzips a drab facade to reveal a burst of color. From Shanghai’s hidden alleyways to the rooftops of Grenoble, these murals by Seth Globepainter reimagine urban architecture through the lens of childhood. This collection features eight of his most poetic and site-responsive works—each one turning a blank wall into a portal of memory, play, or longing.

More by and about Seth Globpanter!: 34 Murals That Turn Walls Into Wonders: Seth’s Street Art Will Blow Your Mind
Jack in the Box — Aalborg, Denmark
A child with closed eyes sits with knees pulled tight to the chest, drawn in large scale onto a gable end of a building. Surrounded by vivid blocks of yellow and blue, crayons scattered at his feet, the scene suggests retreat into imagination.
Unzip — Le Mans, France
A mural of a child pulling open an enormous zipper transforms the entire building facade. The gray surface is peeled back to reveal a vibrant gradient of rainbow colors behind, suggesting freedom, wonder, and hidden worlds.
Periscope — Shanghai, China
In a clever use of existing piping, a small painted child crouches and peers through a pipe formation like a submarine periscope. The art blends seamlessly into the real structure, turning utilities into imagination.
Hopscotch Girl — Paris, France
On a quiet street corner, a young girl in a red checkered dress stands at a hopscotch court, staring at a painted figure mid-jump. The painted girl has lost her shoes and seems to leap beyond the wall, capturing fleeting childhood moments.
Cat Walk — Shanghai, China
A mural of a girl with her head resting on folded arms appears framed in a red window. Her long ponytail dangles down the wall, playfully chased by the silhouette of a black cat reaching for a flower at its tip.
Eye to Eye — Fontaine, France
Two murals face each other across a street. On one wall, a girl whispers toward the other. On the opposite wall, a boy listens under a crescent moon. The murals reflect connection and imagination, using architectural space like a narrative thread.
Hang On — Grenoble, France
A girl clings to a painted tear in the building’s facade, appearing to pull back the gray surface to reveal bright blue sky. Her body swings with momentum as if caught mid-effort to uncover what lies beyond.
In My House by Box — Laon, France
A girl kneels inside a house-shaped outline, spray-painting walls onto the blank facade. Around her, simple shapes in red, yellow, and purple mimic a child’s drawing. It’s both playful and defiant—claiming space through art.
These murals don’t just decorate buildings—they redefine them. Seth Globepainter’s work invites us to see cities as living canvases where memory, play, and possibility are always within reach.

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

We can’t talk about 3D street art without mentioning its pioneers, Kurt Wenner and Julian Beever.

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

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.”

Every year, we share thousands of photos. The images here aren’t ranked, and this isn’t a competition. What happens to go viral on social media often feels pretty random. This year’s collection should be seen as just a slice of all the amazing art created.
This collection features 106 of the most loved street art photos shared on our group, Your Street Art Utopia, and on our pages Street Art Utopia – News and STREET ART UTOPIA.
Every piece has a story to tell – stories of strength, humor, social issues, or pure creativity. These artworks, from big cities and small towns, show how art can bring people together, make places more beautiful, and help us see the world in new ways. Some pieces make us feel anger, while others fill us with love.
This collection is a celebration of creativity and the incredible power of street art to transform our world. Let’s dive in and celebrate the vibrant energy of 2024!

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.”

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.”

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.

“Stadsnatuur” by Nina Valkhoff in Rotterdam, Netherlands.
Did you know that there are foxes in Rotterdam? I did not, and I was so delighted, that I took this opportunity (wall) to tell everyone about the foxes in my city! There are roughly between 30 and 50 of them, hiding for humans, very rarely they are spotted on the streets. They help to keep the population of rats under control and they will never attack humans/kids . The downside is that chickens and rabbits are not safe for a hungry fox.
The Irish mythological story of Étaín! By Nina Valkhoff for DRAWDA festival in Drogheda, Ireland.
Nina Valkhoff: My contribution to the DRAWDA festival in Drogheda, Ireland. This was a special one, I was given the Irish mythological story of Étaín, to make my own visual representation of this complex story. I will not do it justice trying to summarize it here, so I will explain the elements I picked. Étaín was a beautiful woman who got cursed and transformed into a scarlet fly. This is the glowing insect you see in the middle of my painting, a ‘scarlet fly’ with a little twist. In the very end of the story, over a thousand years have passed and Étaín has transformed many times, she flies away with her lover and they are seen as two swans. In my composition I tried to show protection and love, elements that are a part of this story.

📦 Cardboard Box Cat — By Nego in Torrellas, Zaragoza, Spain 🇪🇸
Nego turns an ordinary building corner into a giant cardboard box. The cat peeks out as if the whole house has become a toy. It is funny, smart, and perfectly scaled to make the street feel more playful.💡 Nerd Fact: This joke lands even harder because it taps into real cat behavior. Utrecht University notes that cats with access to simple hiding boxes adapt faster to stressful environments, so the cardboard box is not just a joke. It is also the kind of hiding place cats actually use to feel safer.

According to Kadıköy Municipality, sculptor Seval Şahin made the statue voluntarily, and it was installed at the spot in Ziverbey where Tombili became famous for this relaxed pose. It turns a beloved neighborhood stray into a permanent piece of urban memory.💡 Nerd Fact: Tombili’s monument became its own mini civic saga. Kadıköy Municipality says it only happened after a 17,000-signature campaign, and Hürriyet Daily News later reported that the statue was stolen and returned days later after public outrage.

🐾 Squishee the Alleycat — By SWIFTMANTIS in Papaioea, New Zealand 🇳🇿
This is not just a realistic cat portrait. On the artist’s official mural page, SWIFTMANTIS explains that Squishee was a real local alley cat living under their old brick studio in Palmy before eventually earning a home with them. Painted for Street Prints: Papaioea 2020, the mural carries that real affection as much as the technical skill.💡 Nerd Fact: Squishee’s story kept growing after the mural was finished. On the artist’s own print page, SWIFTMANTIS says later editions became a memorial print with Squishee’s real paw print, and 10% of sales go to Manawatu Alley Cats Trust.

😾 The Dream of Separation — By DALeast in Paris, France 🇫🇷
DALeast’s official site lists the 2019 Paris work as The Dream of Separation, and that title fits the image beautifully. His signature tangle of metallic lines makes the two cats feel as if they are colliding, splintering, and vibrating all at once.More: Street Art by DALeast – In Paris, France

😸 Pelle Svanslös and Maja Gräddnos — By Charlie Granberg in Uppsala, Sweden 🇸🇪
Charlie Granberg gives Pelle Svanslös and Maja Gräddnos a bright and friendly presence, but the mural is bigger and more site-specific than it first looks. Destination Uppsala highlights it as a 15-meter mural of Peter-No-Tail and Molly Cream-Nose in Påvel Snickares Gränd, which makes it feel completely at home in the city that gave the character life.💡 Nerd Fact: Pelle’s stories carry more history than the phrase “beloved children’s cat” might suggest. The official Pelle Svanslös site says the character began on Uppsala radio in 1937, and the books quietly folded in wartime Sweden through blackout rules, ration cards, and even a Danish cat nickname that plays on Quisling.

♻️ Iberian Lynx — By BORDALO II in Lisbon, Portugal 🇵🇹
BORDALO II does not just depict a lynx. He builds it out of the waste we leave behind. That makes this street art animal both beautiful and unsettling, and it makes the environmental message hard to miss.💡 Nerd Fact: This animal choice hits even harder now. Reuters reported that the Iberian lynx was moved from Endangered to Vulnerable in 2024, while BORDALO II’s own Big Trash Animals statement says the whole series is built on the contradiction of using waste to depict creatures whose habitats are damaged by waste.

🐯 The Cat — By Dan Leo at Waterford Walls, Waterford, Ireland 🇮🇪

🌿 Rustle in Feilding — By SWIFTMANTIS in Feilding, New Zealand 🇳🇿
SWIFTMANTIS uses a highly detailed style here, but the story behind the mural is just as memorable. On the official project page, the artist explains that Rustle traveled from London to Feilding mid-pandemic to be reunited with his mum Sophie after six months apart. The painted leaves make that real cat feel like it is quietly spying on the city from its own green hideout.🔗 Follow SWIFTMANTIS on Instagram
🫒 Olive — By SWIFTMANTIS in Christchurch, New Zealand 🇳🇿
This mural lands because it is deeply personal. On the official mural page, SWIFTMANTIS describes Olive as a Christchurch city stray painted for Flare Street Art Festival to help her find a home, and the note now happily adds that she has since been adopted. That turns the wall into more than a portrait. It becomes a public act of care.🔗 Follow SWIFTMANTIS on Instagram

🚐 All Cats Are Beautiful — By Pro Boy Nick in Unknown Location 🌍
The charm here is how temporary the art is. Pro Boy Nick turns a dirty van window into a surprisingly elegant cat portrait. It proves that even street grime can become a pretty great canvas.💡 Nerd Fact: This sits inside a broader street-art lineage sometimes called reverse graffiti. In a Guardian piece on Paul “Moose” Curtis, the method is described as making an image by removing grime instead of adding paint, which means the drawing is literally made out of the clean parts.

✊ Cats Against Racism — By Unknown Artist in Adelaide, Australia 🇦🇺

💡 Cat Lights — By Unknown Artist in Zelenogradsk, Russia 🇷🇺
These cat lights are not a typical graffiti mural, but they show how deeply feline culture is built into Zelenogradsk’s public space. The official Visit Kaliningrad guide describes Kurortny Avenue as a street full of cat-themed urban details, including cat traffic lights, murals, and even a Cat Museum. It is public art, local identity, and pure charm all rolled into one small detail.💡 Nerd Fact: Zelenogradsk did not stop at cute cat details. The official Visit Kaliningrad guide says the town’s cat museum helped set the feline theme for the whole place, and its event calendar even lists “Zelenogradsk Cat’s Birthday” on March 1.

🐈 Katzenstele — By Siegfried Neuenhausen in Braunschweig, Germany 🇩🇪
This monument has a very different energy from the murals in this post. The Städtisches Museum Braunschweig identifies it by its official title, Katzenstele, and notes that the large sculpture has been part of Braunschweig’s cityscape since 1981. It feels solemn and affectionate at the same time.💡 Nerd Fact: This monument is so woven into Braunschweig that the city still plans around it. In a 2023 document, Braunschweig described the Katzenstele as a popular photo motif and a special attraction for children, which is why officials approved work on a new pedestal to keep bins and bikes from crowding it.

🐱 Banksy’s Gaza Kitten — By Banksy in Gaza, Palestine 🇵🇸
This piece hits hard because the kitten is playful while the setting is anything but. ABC News reported that the mural was painted on the remains of a home in Beit Hanoun destroyed during the 2014 war in Gaza. That contrast makes the image impossible to take casually.💡 Nerd Fact: The kitten was never meant to function as a standalone mural. Reuters noted that Banksy folded it into a satirical mini-video about Gaza and said he used a kitten because people online click on cats when they would otherwise scroll past destruction.
