Winter isn’t just about shoveling driveways and shivering in the cold. For those with a bit of imagination, a fresh blanket of snow is the ultimate blank canvas.
From giant puns on a sidewalk to ghosts that got caught in the frost, these 8 photos show that a little bit of freezing weather is no match for a great sense of humor. When the world turns white, it’s the perfect time to remind everyone that nature can be just as funny as it is beautiful.

1. The Frozen Ghost
There is such a thing as “too cold to haunt.” This unfortunate spirit seems to have been caught mid-scare during a record-breaking frost, ending up as a permanent (at least until spring) addition to the building’s architecture. It’s a perfect example of how a bit of ice and the right location can create an accidental masterpiece.
2. Giant Eyeglasses by Pavel Puhov in Russia
The late Pavel Puhov, also known as Pasha P183, was famous for his “street installations.” By using a simple streetlight as the temple piece for a giant pair of glasses drawn in the snow, he transformed a lonely park into a character. It’s a brilliant use of scale and existing urban elements.
3. Snow Angel Frog by David Zinn
David Zinn is the king of small-scale magic. Here, he’s used a simple hole in the snow to house one of his signature characters, making it look like the little guy just completed a very successful snow angel. It’s a quiet, whimsical interaction that rewards those who are actually looking where they walk.

4. The Mailbox Eater
This is one way to ensure you never get bills. Someone turned their mailbox into the wide-open mouth of a snow monster, complete with a leafy crown. It’s a great example of “guerrilla” winter art that turns a boring household chore into a reason for neighbors to stop and smile.
5. “Two Feet” of Snow
A literal pun is sometimes the best kind of art. Instead of complaining about the accumulation, these residents spent their time sculpting two massive, realistic feet on the sidewalk. It’s a visual joke that lands perfectly for anyone who has ever heard a weather report warn about “two feet of snow.”
6. Dromeas (The Runner) in Athens, Greece
Usually, this iconic sculpture made of stacked glass shards looks like it’s mid-sprint through the Mediterranean heat. But when a rare snowstorm hits Athens, the glass captures the white frost, making the “Runner” look like an ice-giant charging through the city. It shows how weather can completely redefine a permanent statue.
7. The Snow Cats
Simple, effective, and adorable. By packing snow against the bark of trees in a local park, someone created a family of white cats “climbing” to the safety of the branches. It’s a low-effort, high-impact way to add a bit of life to a dormant winter forest.
8. Sledding Into Reality by David Zinn
Another David Zinn masterpiece where the art “leaks” out of the environment. A tiny alien character is seen sledding out of a massive snow pile and onto the bare pavement. It’s a clever use of the transition between the shoveled path and the winter piles, making the sidewalk feel like a playground.

11 Amazing Snow and ICE Sculptures
Winter is often seen as a season of cold and gray, but for these creative minds, a fresh snowfall is the ultimate blank canvas.
From clever sidewalk interventions to massive figures that stop traffic, these creators prove that a bit of freezing weather is the only spark needed for a brilliant idea. We have curated 11 of the most creative and surprising ways people have played with snow and ice this season to transform their neighborhoods into temporary art galleries.More: Fun With Snow (8 Photos)
🦇 1. Batman of Boston by George Li
In the heart of Boston’s Chinatown, George Li turned a massive pile of street snow into the Dark Knight. Standing tall among the parked cars, this icy guardian proves that even a blizzard can have its own hero. It is a fantastic example of using the gritty, urban elements of winter to create something iconic that makes locals stop and stare at the slushy sidewalk.
🤘 2. Punk’s Not Dead
Nature and freezing temperatures joined forces to give this vehicle a radical makeover. This row of jagged icicles forming a massive mohawk across the roof is the perfect example of accidental street art. It looks exactly like it belongs on the cover of a classic rock album and gives the cold weather a rebellious edge.
🐻 3. A Warm Bear Hug
Someone turned a local tree into a giant, lovable teddy bear. This snow sculpture of a massive bear clinging to the trunk is a charming way to make a walk through the park feel like a scene from a winter fairytale. It captures a beautiful moment of frozen affection in the middle of a cold day.
🏮 4. The Moomin Midwinter
Inspired by Tove Jansson’s beloved stories, these snow figures truly come to life when the sun goes down. By placing lights inside the sculptures, the artist turned a dark field into a glowing gathering of mysterious creatures that feel both magical and slightly eerie in the best possible way.
🎨 5. Snow-na Lisa
There is no need to travel to the Louvre when a masterpiece like this appears on the ground. A talented artist used the snow-covered pavement as a canvas to recreate the world’s most famous portrait. It is a great reminder that fine art can happen anywhere, even under your boots on a snowy sidewalk.
🐈 6. The Snowcat Stencil
Sometimes the simplest ideas have the biggest impact. By clearing just enough snow to create the silhouette of a massive, playful cat on the street, this artist gave the entire neighborhood a giant feline friend to look down on from their windows.
🛒 7. Snow-woman and the Kids
This creative display moves far beyond the traditional three-circle snowman. Featuring a “snow-woman” pushing a wheelbarrow full of tiny snow-babies, this artist turned their backyard into a funny and relatable family scene that easily beats any standard holiday decoration.
🚓 8. Police Cars with Personality
The local precinct joined the winter fun, whether they intended to or not. Someone used the snow-covered windshields as a medium to draw various expressive faces on the fleet, turning a serious row of police vehicles into a cast of animated characters with very different moods.
🖍️ 9. A Lesson in Snow by David Zinn
David Zinn brings his signature whimsy to the freezing sidewalk. “Here in the north, it is crucially important to learn the difference between snowflakes and salt,” he says of his small character navigating the winter ground. This tiny, heart-warming detail is a perfect reminder to look closer at the world around us. More: Made You Smile (12 Photos of Art by David Zinn)🔗 Follow David Zinn on Instagram
🐾 10. The Cat Army
Why settle for one snowman when you can build an entire battalion of cats. This garden has been completely taken over by a crowd of tiny, wide-eyed snow kittens. Each one has its own little tail and personality, creating a winter scene that is almost too cute to melt.
🕊️ 11. “I’m Not Mad At You” by Harry Welty
This snow sculpture by Harry Welty in Duluth is a memorial for Renee Nicole Good, who was tragically killed in Minneapolis earlier this month. The sign on the snow-car features her own words: “I’m not mad at you.”More: Fun With Snow Sculptures (10 Photos)

When the snow starts falling, some people see more than just a chore—they see a blank canvas for the bizarre. Forget the standard carrot-nosed snowmen; the neighborhood has officially been turned into an open-air gallery of the strange and the brilliant.
It turns out that when you combine a massive snowstorm with a serious amount of creative boredom, the results are legendary. From massive Easter Island Moai heads standing guard over driveways to surreal sculptures that look like a glitch in reality, these 8 snow masterpieces prove that creativity doesn’t freeze just because the temperature drops. This is the kind of winter art that makes you stop the car, rub your eyes, and wonder if you’re still dreaming.

1. Moai on the Lawn by Matt Morris in Waterloo, Canada
Matt Morris brought a taste of Easter Island to Ontario by carving these iconic monolithic figures right out of a snowbank. It’s an incredible display of scale and patience in the Canadian cold.
2. High-Fashion Snow Sculpture
This elegant couple, illuminated by the city lights, looks like they are caught mid-dance at a winter ball. A beautiful example of how light and snow can create a truly magical atmosphere.
3. The Classic Headstand
Who says snowmen have to be upright? This upside-down fellow, complete with boots for ears and a carrot nose pointing the wrong way, brings a much-needed sense of humor to the winter landscape.
4. Mailbox Monster
This hungry snowman seems to have found a very specific snack. By incorporating a standard mailbox into the design, the artist created a fun and interactive piece that surely surprised the mail carrier.
5. Snow-Day Recovery
This sculpture captures the “morning after” feeling perfectly. With a bucket for a head and bottles scattered around, this snowman clearly had a much more interesting night than the rest of us.
6. Venus in the Cold
Merging classical art with temporary materials, this sculpture combines the body of Venus de Milo with the head of the Nike of Samothrace. It’s a sophisticated take on the traditional snowman.
7. Snow-Dog Relaxation
Some snow sculptures are just pure and simple. This fluffy white dog lounging on the grass is a charming tribute to our four-legged friends who love the winter air.
8. Rolling Through Winter
This creative piece features a figure crafted from snow seated in a wheelchair, proving that art and winter fun are accessible to everyone. It’s a clever and thoughtful use of props to tell a story.

Fun With Snow Sculptures (10 Photos)
This set focuses on snow used with intent rather than decoration. A full-scale Venus torso rises from a parking lot. A dancing couple is shaped with correct proportions and posture. An owl made of snow is placed next to a real owl, matching its size and stance.
Other works lean into physical placement: a figure seated on a park bench, a snowman balanced upside down, one built around a mailbox, another placed in a wheelchair, and a dog recreated beside the animal it copies. The pieces rely on positioning, scale, and reference to work before they melt away.More: Snow is fun! (35 photos)
1. Venus de Milo Without a Head
A tall snow sculpture shaped like a classical female torso, referencing the ancient marble statue Venus de Milo. The smooth surface and draped lower section imitate carved stone while standing alone in a snowy parking area.
2. Winter Waltz
Two snow figures posed as a dancing couple, facing each other with hands placed at shoulder and waist. Their clothing and posture suggest formal attire shaped entirely from packed snow.
3. Snow Cat Climbing Trees
A small snow figure wrapped around a tree trunk, using the bark and knot holes as part of the face and body. The snow is applied directly to the tree to form arms and legs.
4. Impostor Owl
A snow owl sculpture placed next to a real owl, copying its shape, size, and posture. Stones and small objects are used for eyes and markings to mirror the living bird.
5. Mailbox Monster
A snow creature built around an open mailbox, using it as a mouth. Sticks form arms, and small objects create eyes and eyebrows, turning a driveway into a staged scene.
6. Park Bench Companion
A seated snow figure placed on a wooden bench, with legs hanging over the edge. The simple facial features and posture suggest a quiet moment in a public park.
7. Headstand Snowman
An upside-down snowman balanced on its head, with boots used as feet and a scarf wrapped around the inverted body. The pose adds movement to an otherwise static form.
8. Snowman in a Wheelchair
A snow figure seated in a real wheelchair, using the chair’s structure as part of the sculpture. The piece blends snow with everyday mobility equipment.
9. Double Dog
A small snow dog positioned beside a real dog of similar size and color. The sculpture mimics the animal’s stance and proportions using minimal details.
10. After the Party
A collapsed snowman lying across wooden pallets, surrounded by empty bottles. The scene is staged to resemble exhaustion after a long night.More: Made You Smile Again (8 Photos)

💦 1. Joyful Explosion — By Rosalie de Graaf in Zwolle, Netherlands 🇳🇱
A massive mural of four laughing children covers the side of a residential high-rise. They are painted in vivid technicolor. Splashes of paint, bubbles, and sea creatures swirl around them. The whole scene bursts with joyful movement and energy.
💡 Nerd Fact: Rosalie called this her highest artwork so far: a 32-meter mural in a multicultural Zwolle neighborhood where each child is tied to a different color, meant to show cultures blending as they play. She is also the founder of the first street art school in the Netherlands.

🏖️ 2. Wile E. Coyote — By PUFFERFISH on the Beach 🌍
This amazing artwork is carved directly into the sand. It shows Looney Tunes’ Wile E. Coyote flattened underground. The character is sculpted to perfectly mimic classic cartoon slapstick. It sits beautifully on a wide, empty beach under the bright summer sun.
💡 Nerd Fact: This sand joke comes with serious cartoon history: Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner debuted in 1949’s Fast and Furry-ous, and Chuck Jones later said the coyote was shaped by Mark Twain’s description of a hungry, unlucky western coyote. That makes PUFFERFISH’s “flattened” version feel like a love letter to one of animation’s oldest running gags.

🌺 3. Flowers for West Town — By Ouizi (Louise Jones) in Chicago, USA 🇺🇸
Bright yellow daisies and pink peonies tower over a Chicago brick building. A red admiral butterfly joins the stunning floral mural. The artist painted it to look like flowers are growing straight from the sidewalk. It fills the entire wall with breathtaking color and texture.
💡 Nerd Fact: On her official mural page, Ouizi lists this wall as “West Town in Bloom”. Local coverage notes that she planned a bouquet of camellias, daisies, apple blossoms, and a peony, and intentionally left parts of the brick visible so the building itself stayed inside the composition.
🔗 Follow Ouizi (Louise Jones) on Instagram
🫙 4. Sluggo in a Jar — By David Zinn in Michigan, USA 🇺🇸
David Zinn’s adorable character Sluggo is trapped in a transparent jar. The artist chalked the jar directly around a street manhole. Sluggo’s eyes peek out nervously while wearing cute little flippers. This clever 3D illusion perfectly uses the manhole cover as the jar’s lid. More: Happy Art by David Zinn! (15 Photos)
💡 Nerd Fact: Sluggo was born by accident. Zinn says he first tried to draw a dancing child on a stain-marked sidewalk, but the head came out “eggplant-shaped,” so he finally put the eyes above the head and realized he had created Sluggo. On his own site, Zinn still calls Sluggo one of his most enduring characters.

👻 5. Ghost Sculpture — By Visitors in Varenna, Italy 🇮🇹
A spooky gauze ghost figure draped over a bench overlooks Lake Como. Visitors to the Castle of Vezio create these chalk-dusted specters by hand every single summer. They turn the beautiful grounds into a silent gathering of seated spirits. More photos and about the sculptures: Haunting Ghost Sculptures Overlook Lake Como at Castle of Vezio
💡 Nerd Fact: These white figures echo a much older local legend: tourism sources around Vezio say Queen Teodolinda’s ghost is said to roam the castle. Even better, the hilltop also hosts a falconry center and a Lariosaurus fossil display, so the site mixes medieval legend, live birds of prey, and prehistoric lake reptiles in one stop.
🧺 6. Laundry Day — By Golsa Golchini in Milan, Italy 🇮🇹
This tiny miniature mural shows a painted woman reaching out of a real window. She is hanging white laundry onto a peeling section of the wall. The peeling paint has been cleverly transformed into drying sheets. This street art beautifully blends reality and illusion. More by Golsa Golchini: You Might Walk Past These—But They’re Tiny Masterpieces in Disguise
💡 Nerd Fact: Golsa Golchini is an Iran-born, Milan-based visual artist trained at the Accademia di Brera. That cross-medium background—painting, photography, sculpture, even affresco—helps explain why her tiny wall scenes feel less like doodles and more like miniature stage sets.

🧌 7. Mama Mimi the Troll — By Thomas Dambo in Wilson, USA 🇺🇸
This giant wooden troll reclines comfortably in the water at Rendezvous Park. She is crafted entirely from scrap wood. She rests her head on her hand and extends her massive legs across a bridge. This is part of Dambo’s amazing mission to build magical trolls in public spaces using recycled materials. More by Thomas Dambo: 10 Giant Trolls Hiding in Forests, Lakes and Ruins
💡 Nerd Fact: Jackson Hole Public Art says Mama Mimi was built from recycled wood, steel, and driftwood sourced locally, and she is the 80th troll in Thomas Dambo’s wider fairy-tale universe. Dambo’s own studio describes those trolls as works where folklore, environmentalism, and community participation all meet.

👧 8. A Swing in the Summer Light — By ATTORREP in Belsito, Italy 🇮🇹
A girl in a white dress swings out from a beautifully painted window. The stunning mural sits right between two old buildings. Her view overlooks gorgeous mountains and rooftops. An older man even watches from another window above. This street art scene brilliantly plays with perspective and playful movement.
💡 Nerd Fact: ATTORREP did not frame this as a simple childhood scene. He wrote that the swing is “the best metaphor of life”, with the present pushing toward the future while the past shivers back into view. He is also the founder and artistic curator of the OSA Festival.

☀️ 9. Border Hammock — By Murat Gök in Mardin, Turkey 🇹🇷
A man lounges comfortably in a highly unusual hammock. It is actually fashioned from a section of chain-link border fence. The fence is stretched between two concrete posts in a dry open field. This conceptual street art cleverly subverts the idea of separation. It turns a harsh border into a peaceful symbol of rest and freedom under the summer sky.
💡 Nerd Fact: This image is often reposted with the wrong city, but the Institute for Public Art documents it as Murat Gök’s Border (2010), a performance photograph made in Mardin on the Turkey–Syria border. That context matters: the hammock is not only a visual joke, but a temporary act of rest carved directly into a militarized line.

Clever Spring Signs (10 Photos)
Spring has a way of announcing itself with clever little signals.
Sometimes it arrives as a wall full of flowers, sometimes as a handmade note beside free blooms, sometimes as a bird returning to a branch, and sometimes as a patch of “weeds” that turns out to be a feast for bees. These 10 photos capture the smartest, sweetest, and most imaginative clues that winter is over and the world is waking up again.More: Streets Into Gardens (14 photos)
🌺 “Alive” — By ZABOU in London, UK 🇬🇧
ZABOU turns spring into something deeper than decoration. The flowers are lush and bright, but the real power comes from the tension between the calm face, the skull, and the butterfly resting between them. It feels like the season’s oldest message painted at full scale: life keeps coming back.More photos: ALIVE
💡 Nerd Fact: This was not painted as a generic spring mural. Zabou made Alive for Blank Walls’ “Strength” series and described it as a work about resilience and “life stronger than death,” which makes the flowers feel less like decoration and more like a rebuttal to the skull.

🦋 Forest Butterflies — By Dege in Le Puy-en-Velay, France 🇫🇷
Some spring signs are quiet, and this one feels exactly like the first truly warm walk through the woods. Dege fills a parking wall with water, light, moss, and giant butterflies, turning a concrete space into something that suddenly feels cool, green, and alive again.💡 Nerd Fact: Le Puy-en-Velay is not just any French town: it is the best-known French starting point of the Via Podiensis route to Santiago de Compostela, a walking trail famous for crossing landscapes rich in flora and fauna. That gives this forest mural an extra layer: in a city built around setting off on foot, the wall feels like the journey has already begun.

🌱 Nadine and the Vertical Commute — By David Zinn in Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA 🇺🇸
David Zinn makes one little sprig of growth feel like a full spring adventure. The crack in the pavement becomes sky, the plant becomes a ladder, and suddenly the season is not just arriving, it is climbing. Few artists make first-growth optimism feel this playful.More: They Look Alive (19 Photos Of Art by David Zinn)
💡 Nerd Fact: David Zinn’s own wonderfully over-the-top term for his sidewalk method is “ephemeral pareidolic anamorphosis”, meaning his drawings are temporary, improvised on site, and built from cracks, textures, and found objects. Nadine is also one of his long-running recurring characters, not a one-off mouse.

🌻 Flowers for West Town — By Ouizi in Chicago, USA 🇺🇸
Ouizi paints spring at building scale. The flowers climb the brick like they were always supposed to be there, and the butterfly near the top makes the whole wall feel mid-bloom. It is the kind of mural that can change the mood of an entire street corner.More: Flowers for West Town by Ouizi in Chicago
💡 Nerd Fact: Ouizi does not paint random bouquets. She has said that she tries to reflect the flowers actually found in each place and even consults horticulturists to get them right, which means this mural works almost like a neighborhood botany portrait, not just floral wallpaper.

☀️ A Little Bit of Sunshine — A Free Flower Sign
Nothing says spring quite like someone putting fresh yellow flowers out for strangers. The sign is simple, generous, and impossible not to smile at. It turns a tiny act of sharing into one of the season’s smartest reminders: warmth is something people can pass along.💡 Nerd Fact: A free flower table like this accidentally revives floriography — the 19th-century “language of flowers,” when people in Britain and America used bouquets as coded messages. So even a simple street-side bloom comes with a long history of saying something without words.

🐦 Plant Trees for Birdsong — A Clever Street Message
This one makes its point in a single glance. Instead of trapping beauty, it argues for making room for it. Spring is the season when birds start filling the air again, and this message captures that whole feeling in one smart, humane, unforgettable line.💡 Nerd Fact: The sign is ecologically spot-on: native trees do far more than give birds places to perch. They support the insects nestlings need for protein, and oaks are especially important because they host more butterfly and moth species than any other plant genus.
More: These Clever Signs Turn Streets Into A Comedy Club (9 Photos)
🐝 Pardon the Weeds — We Are Feeding the Bees
One of the cleverest spring signs of all is knowing when not to tidy anything up. Between the poppies and the buzzing logic of the message, this little sign reframes messy growth as care. Suddenly the wild patch looks less neglected and more like a public service.💡 Nerd Fact: The logic behind this sign lines up with current pollinator advice. Flowers people often dismiss as lawn “weeds” — like dandelions and white clover — can be important early food for bees, which is why low-mow campaigns focus on letting spring flowers bloom before cutting them down.

🌺 Bougainvillea Shades — Street Art in Pondicherry, India 🇮🇳
Sometimes the best spring artist is the plant itself. This Pondicherry wall is already playful, but the bougainvillea bursting above the painted sunglasses turns it into a perfect collaboration between mural and season. It feels styled by nature in real time.More: Street Art in Pondicherry, India
💡 Nerd Fact: In Puducherry’s White Town, bougainvillea-draped yellow walls are already part of the area’s signature look, so this wall is tapping into a real local streetscape. And botanically, the bright pink parts most people call the “flowers” are actually papery bracts, the true flowers are the small pale ones tucked in the center.

💙 Fairywren in Blossom — By Geoffrey Carran in Carlton North, Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺
Bright bird, pink blossoms, dark wall — everything here is balanced perfectly. Geoffrey Carran captures that instant when spring feels crisp instead of soft, vivid instead of vague. The fairywren looks like it landed for a second and made the whole wall lighter.More: Male Fairy Wren by Geoffrey Carran Melbourne, Australia
💡 Nerd Fact: The likely real-life reference here is the superb fairy-wren, a common southeastern Australian “blue wren” whose males turn brilliant blue in breeding season. Even better, courting males are famous for carrying flower petals to potential mates, which makes the blossom setting extra fitting.

🔥 End of Winter — By Miguel Peralta in Castro Caldelas, Spain 🇪🇸
Not every spring sign is floral. Miguel Peralta goes for fire, procession, and ritual, showing the season as something earned and celebrated. It feels like winter being carried out in flames so the brighter months can finally take over.💡 Nerd Fact: This mural is basically a portrait of a real local ritual. Castro Caldelas celebrates the Festa dos Fachós every 19 January, when giant straw torches are carried through the village and thrown onto a bonfire, and Miguel Peralta’s mural was created specifically as a tribute to that tradition.

From Massachusetts and Miami to Warsaw, Birmingham, Ecuador, France, and Spain, these works prove that a great mural does not always need a blank wall.

🛑 The Last STOP — By AxZstreetart in Warsaw, Poland 🇵🇱
AxZstreetart’s Warsaw road-sign intervention turns a standard no-entry sign into a miniature Last Supper. The joke works because Leonardo’s long table composition fits the red circle and white bar so neatly that the sign looks as if it had been waiting for it. A small move with a sharp payoff. More: “The Last STOP”: A Street Sign Transformed into Art Inspired by “The Last Supper”
💡 Nerd Fact: Leonardo’s The Last Supper was painted for Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan and shows the moment when Jesus tells the Apostles that one of them will betray him, according to Britannica. That built-in drama is part of why the image still reads clearly, even when compressed onto a road sign.

🦩 Pink Flamingo — By Tom Bob in New Bedford, Massachusetts, USA 🇺🇸
Tom Bob named this piece “PINK FLAMINGO”, and it appears on the George Kirby Jr. Paint Co. building on Mount Vernon Street in New Bedford. The meter becomes the body, the pipe becomes the neck, and the wall fixture becomes a bird with just enough paint. It is a simple example of how well he reads the city’s leftover hardware. More: 33 Playful Street Artworks by Tom Bob
💡 Nerd Fact: This wall belongs to George Kirby Jr. Paint Co., a New Bedford business with family history going back to 1846 and a long connection to marine paint. So Tom Bob’s flamingo is perched on a building with real maritime-industrial history behind it.

🧗 First Steps After a Fall — By David Zinn in Michigan, USA 🇺🇸
David Zinn is at his best when the pavement tells him what to draw. Here the concrete steps become a tiny recovery scene, with a small pale kitten stretching back up toward a mouse after its slip. The drawing is gentle, funny, and dependent on the stairs to tell the story. More: David Zinn’s Hidden Chalk Art (12 Photos)
💡 Nerd Fact: On his official artist page, Zinn says his temporary street drawings are made entirely with chalk, charcoal, and found objects. The page also names recurring characters such as Sluggo, Philomena, and Nadine. That is part of what makes his sidewalk world feel like a continuing miniature mythology, not just a set of one-off doodles.

🌿 Cobija de plantas — By El Decertor in Imbabura, Ecuador 🇪🇨
El Decertor titled this mural Cobija de plantas and painted it in Imbabura for Numu Festival. The living hedge is not beside the work but part of it, reading as a real blanket pulled over the sleeping child. It is a beautiful example of a mural letting the site finish the image. More: By El Decertor in Imbabura, Ecuador (2 Photos)
💡 Nerd Fact: Decertor describes his practice as building “weatherproof memories in public spaces”. In a Buenos Aires Street Art interview, he also connects parts of his wider mural work to Indigenous identity, ancestry, land, and communities pushed aside. That background gives this quiet sleeping-child image more emotional weight than a simple visual trick.

📞 Telefòn — By Seth in Little Haiti, Miami, USA 🇺🇸
This Little Haiti mural is listed on Seth’s website as Telefòn, part of the Made in Haiti project with Martha Cooper. Real barbed wire becomes the phone line between the two children, which is why the image lands so strongly: innocence and danger share the same line. More: 34 Murals That Turn Walls Into Wonders: Seth’s Street Art
💡 Nerd Fact: Seth’s Made in Haiti project followed a March 2019 trip through Haiti with Martha Cooper and focused on the imaginative wealth and resilience of Haitian children. So Telefòn belongs to a larger body of work shaped by travel, observation, and documentary attention — not just a one-off clever mural.

👼 Roots and wings — By WD in Aurec-sur-Loire, France 🇫🇷
WD titled this anamorphic mural Roots and wings. The building’s corners are not just a backdrop; they are part of the composition, and Street Art Cities places the work at 88 Rue du 19 Mars 1962 in Aurec-sur-Loire. The result feels less painted onto the facade than locked into its architecture. More by WD: 3D Murals by WD (8 Photos)
💡 Nerd Fact: According to the Street Art Cities description, the title Roots and wings is literal in concept: roots stand for the strong foundations we grow from, while wings represent the skills and confidence that let us explore and make choices. That gives the mural a clear coming-of-age idea: where you come from matters, and so does the confidence to move forward.

👁️ Reflective Eye — By My Dog Sighs in Miami, USA 🇺🇸
This Miami mural was painted for aWall Mural Projects and uses My Dog Sighs’ recurring reflective-eye format. The iris carries the idea, folding the street, sky, and viewer into the painting so the wall seems to look back. More: Eyes That Speak: A Collection of My Dog Sighs’ Street Artworks
💡 Nerd Fact: This mural sits inside a much bigger civic art effort: aWall Mural Projects has produced more than 150 school murals across Miami-Dade since 2018. My Dog Sighs has also said in a My Modern Met interview that the eye motif works for him because it lets him hide stories of love, loss, people, and place inside the reflection.

🦊 Origami Fox — By Annatomix in Birmingham, UK 🇬🇧
This underpass piece is one of Annatomix’s foxes painted for St. Modwen in Longbridge. Street Art Cities also lists the set as the “Longbridge Foxes” on the River Rea nature trail. The folded orange planes suit the underpass, turning a grey passage into a bright landmark. More: Origami Fox by Annatomix in Longbridge, Birmingham (3 Photos and Video)
💡 Nerd Fact: This fox is part of the “Longbridge Foxes”, painted for the River Rea trail. The wider Longbridge work has included restoring the river corridor, adding ecological enhancements, and creating new habitats, according to the project engineers. So the animal choice connects with a real landscape-regeneration story, not just a decorative theme.

🍂 Fox Mural — By Alegría del Prado in Carballo, Spain 🇪🇸
Alegría del Prado’s Carballo wall for Rexenera Fest builds the fox from leaves, branches, feathers, and other natural textures, so the animal feels grown out of the facade rather than pasted onto it. It is lush, careful work, and the old surface suits it beautifully. More: Fox Mural by Alegría del Prado in Carballo, Spain (7 Photos)
💡 Nerd Fact: On the official Rexenera Fest page, this giant fox is described as a guardian animal and a symbol of cunning and care — qualities linked to protecting the home and keeping a family together. Alegría del Prado is also the duo of Octavio Alegría and Ester del Prado, who have worked together since 2010, which helps explain the layered feel of the mural.

🐆 TUCAN & OCELOTE — By Moxaico in Vícar, Spain 🇪🇸
Moxaico made this pair as two separate works, TUCAN and OCELOTE, for the 2025 edition of Paseando entre Velas in Vícar. Framed like medallions and finished in gold, they sit somewhere between mural, mosaic, and ornament, with the architecture acting as part of the frame.
💡 Nerd Fact: On his official bio, Moxaico explains that he first painted a wall with spray in 1995 and later moved from the name COMA toward MOXAICO as his work shifted from graffiti into a more figurative mural language. These two works were also made for Vícar’s jungle-themed 2025 edition of Paseando entre Velas, where the town later reported around 15,000 visitors and 15,000 candle-lamps.

🌿 “Planté là” — By Levalet in Paris, France 🇫🇷
Levalet makes this Paris wall feel wonderfully unstable. The figure seems to tumble straight into a painted plant-shadow, while the real foliage above finishes the joke and turns the whole corner into one seamless visual trick.💡 Nerd Fact: The title works like a French wordplay: Mazel Galerie translates it as “Plant here,” while “planter là” can also mean leaving someone standing there or dumping them on the spot. So the joke starts in the language before it even starts on the wall.

🌍 Floating Earth — By Luke Jerram in London, UK 🇬🇧
Luke Jerram takes a familiar image and makes it feel totally uncanny. The illuminated planet floating in dark water looks both monumental and fragile, turning the city around it into a temporary orbit.💡 Fun Fact: The “Floating Earth” artwork uses detailed, real NASA imagery rendered at a scale of exactly 1.8 million times smaller than the actual planet.

🐍 The Golden Legend — By SFHIR in Guarda, Portugal 🇵🇹
SFHIR saw a staircase and apparently thought, what if this was a serpent’s natural habitat? The result is a mural that fits the architecture so perfectly it feels like the snake has always been coiled through the concrete.More: The Golden Legend on Street Art Utopia | SFHIR on Instagram
🌿 Ivy Portrait — By Fauxreel in Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦
Fauxreel lets the wall do half the work and the ivy do the rest. The greenery becomes hair, shadow, costume, and atmosphere all at once, which makes the portrait feel less placed on the wall than discovered inside it.💡 Nerd Fact: Fauxreel’s work is site-led by design: Dan Bergeron says the shape, texture, location, and history of a place dictate what he makes there. That fits perfectly with an artist whose portraits often come out of photography, social observation, and giving visibility to people in public space.

📚 Bookshelf Building — By Jan Is De Man in Solnechnodolsk, Russia 🇷🇺
Jan Is De Man is a master of making buildings pretend to be something else. Here, a plain apartment block becomes an oversized bookshelf full of local favorites, and the entire facade suddenly feels warmer, smarter, and way more playful.More: 8 Happy 3D Artworks by Jan Is De Man That Will Make You Smile
💡 Fun Fact: When Jan Is De Man paints his giant bookshelves, he doesn’t just invent random titles. He actually knocks on the doors of the people living in the building and asks for their favorite books, then paints those exact covers on the facade.
More: Bookshelf Building on Street Art Utopia | Jan Is De Man on Instagram
🪵 Carved Facade — By Vhils in Porto, Portugal 🇵🇹
Vhils does not paint over a surface so much as excavate it. The portrait and branch-like textures feel embedded in the building’s own history, as if the wall had been carrying this image the whole time.💡 Urban Nerd Fact: Vhils’ whole method comes from seeing city walls as archives. On his official bio, he explains that growing up around Lisbon’s rapid redevelopment made him notice how walls absorb social and historical change, which is why he removes layers instead of adding them: he treats the surface like urban memory.
More: Vhils in Porto on Street Art Utopia | Vhils on Instagram
🌱 Oxygen Tree — By Dr Love in Bristol, England 🇬🇧
This one is simple, sharp, and impossible to forget. Dr Love turns a little patch of real moss into the crown of a tree and suddenly the entire piece becomes about that living things are not decorative extras, they are the air.💡 Eco Nerd Fact: This fits a bigger thread in Dr Love’s work: in Tbilisi, he has used murals to raise awareness about air pollution, and a Bristol breath-themed exhibition later described this Upfest piece as exploring the relationship between humans and their environment.
More: Dr Love at Upfest on Street Art Utopia
🐙 Waterworld — By Sandrine Boulet in Saint-Cast-le-Guildo, France 🇫🇷
Sandrine Boulet sees tiny ecosystems where most people see cracks and weeds. That is what makes this little octopus so satisfying: the real plants become perfect tentacles, and a broken seam in the wall turns into a miniature tide pool.💡 Nerd Fact: Sandrine Estrade Boulet’s whole practice is basically built on the idea of “look in a different way” — that exact phrase appears on her own site. Profiles of her work also note that she often uses temporary, damage-free tweaks to everyday street details, so this tiny octopus feels less like a random joke and more like her entire artistic philosophy in miniature

🚧 Sign Intervention — By Clet Abraham in London, England 🇬🇧
Clet Abraham has a special talent for making official signs feel weirdly human. With just a tiny added character, the red no-entry symbol turns into a miniature scene, and suddenly street furniture becomes part of the city’s sense of humor.💡 Sign Nerd Fact: Clet’s altered road signs are usually made with removable vinyl stickers, and he’s explicit that they should not destroy the sign’s original meaning. That’s why his best interventions feel clever rather than chaotic: they work like visual translations, not vandalized instructions.

💡 Bright Yellow Light — By (fos) in Madrid, Spain 🇪🇸
This is such a smart little reality hack. (fos) takes an ordinary lamp and exaggerates its glow into a bold geometric beam, making the entire storefront look like it has been switched from normal life into a graphic novel.💡 Design Nerd Fact: “(fos)” was both the collective’s name and the title of its first installation, and the word itself means “light” in Greek and “melted” in Catalan. Even better, the Madrid piece was temporary — the facade only stayed “lit” for four days and nights.

⚪ Circle and Series of Shards — By Felice Varini in Vercorin, Switzerland 🇨🇭
Felice Varini is one of the great magicians of perspective. From the right viewpoint the village clicks into a perfect graphic composition, and from almost anywhere else it falls apart into fragments again.💡 Process Nerd Fact: Varini often maps these works by projecting the geometry onto the site at night with a powerful projector and tracing it with his team. He has also described the ideal spot as a “reading point,” which is a very Varini way of saying the viewer has to learn how to read the architecture.

In the quiet embrace of nature, artist Hannah Bullen-Ryner creates enchanting, ephemeral artworks that celebrate the beauty and fragility of the natural world.
With a keen eye for detail and a deep respect for the environment, she transforms fallen petals, delicate leaves, and tiny stones into expressive creatures and intricate mandalas, each piece thoughtfully arranged on the forest floor. In this collection, Hannah brings a vibrant cast of characters to life—a curious opossum, a vivid cardinal crafted from every red petal at hand, a graceful swan from fallen white blossoms, and even a playful octopus with swirling, petal-like tentacles. Her radiant mandala bird, framed by a halo of purple and pink petals, feels like a glimpse into a peaceful, otherworldly realm.
Captured only in photos before returning to the earth, Hannah’s work use the fleeting magic of everyday moments, encouraging us to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the natural world.

Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: My ephemeral version of ‘Girl with a Pearl Earring’ by Johannes Vermeer.

Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: Two little Warbler’s and a tiny Golden-crowned kinglet. I have always been drawn to circles around my work, it’s like looking into a little window into another world, or a portal, just for a moment. Even though it’s tiny, this piece took quite some time! I made the birds simultaneously, laying their eyes first and then all their beaks, and working my way out from there. I then built the blue pebble mosaic around them. (Tricky because ohh so delicate!) These tiny pebbles were collected by my parents at the beach.. they came to me as a mixed bag of wondrous colours and these are all the beautiful sea-blue tones.
3
Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: Seahorse… People question how I can possibly find all these materials, but the answer is really very easy. My work is very, very small. I need very tiny ingredients and I am never not looking. I’m a magpie and have tiny pebbles and things constantly, in every single pocket. I also recycle elements over and over and over again. I store them in half coconut shells that I leave on site and cover with an old fence post. If petals have dried I dunk them in some water until they are workable again. Hopefully this gives you a bit more of an insight.

Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: Costa’s Hummingbird using wilted wild Crocus flowers.
5
Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: Barn owl. I had so much fun bringing this little one to life. In the past I’ve struggled to get their sleek form right, but I had extra time today, and I am so pleased with how this turned out! I also had fun smashing up great lumps of chalk to create these tiny fragments, using a bigger, sharper rock, caveman styles.
6
Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: Say hello to my little friend the Sea Turtle. This little guy took me around 5 hours! I included an old bit of found glass bottle in this piece alongside my natural elements.
7
Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: In response the atrocities going on in Ukraine right now, my white Dove of peace made from white blossom flowers, small white feathers and wilted Crocus petals. May it fly on the breeze and reach those who so desperately need it.
8
Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: Kind and gentle Wolf to calm, soothe and heal. May he find you where you are.
9
Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: A positive and hopeful young Lynx.
10
Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: Meet my little Leopard friend
11
Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: Octopus. She’s far from perfect because I made her in just under two hours, and the wind, oh the wind! We had fun Mother Nature and little ol’ me, arranging and rearranging the tentacles. In the end this is our collaborative effort! Made predominantly using flowers *borrowed* from my parents garden, and tiny pebbles and shell fragments picked out from their gravel!
12
Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: Baby Elephant.
13
Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: Male Cardinal. Did I specifically know I was going to make a Cardinal today? No.. Did I gather lots of red things? Also no. Did I therefore have to use every single scrap of red I had hanging around in my coconut bowls? Um yes! I genuinely don’t know why I do this to myself but hey! I love him! Perhaps he came to visit you?
14
Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: My first ever ephemeral Swan… I was gifted one orange and three white cut flowers from my local supermarket that had fallen from a display, so I used a few orange petals for the beak and the white petals along some parts of the neck.. everything else is foraged as usual.
15
Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: One of my all time favourite birds found here in the UK, the tiny Bluetit. Made here, with a mossy and lichen-y tummy and a sparkle in their eye. Continuing to send out a message of love and hope to all those suffering at the hands of war.
16
Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: Today I only had around 45 minutes to make some art so I just free-flowed like I used to, no reference pics, just me and the elements.. and this little fluffy appeared and made me smile..
17
Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: Meet my tiny, baby Opossum friend. So cute I really wanted to take her home in my pocket! Thank you for the recommendation to make one of these beautiful souls! While I created her (sitting on the woodland floor) I made friends with a Magpie who got brave enough to come within about two feet of me to collect some yummy pellets I had put down. A family of Long tails chirruped in the branches above, and naturally, my trusty friend the Robin stayed close by keeping me company.
18
Hannah Bullen-Ryner Art: Our energy doesn’t stop neatly at the boundary of our skin, we are each a glowing galaxy of light that radiates within and around our physical bodies. Our skin cannot contain us.

Erected in 2016, this statue stands on the cliffs of Tintagel Castle, a site steeped in Arthurian legend.

4. This colossal sculpture was created nearly 450 years ago by Flemish sculptor Giambologna as a symbol of Italy’s Apennine mountains. Standing at nearly 14 meters (45 ft) tall, it was commissioned by Francesco de Medici, the Grand Duke of Tuscany, in 1579.
Positioned above a pond, the statue features a chamber in its head where Francesco would sit and fish at night. When a fire was lit inside, the Colossus’s eyes glowed red, and smoke billowed from its nostrils, creating a striking visual effect.

6. Not the most amazing statue, but definitely an amazing story. In Istanbul, Turkey, they made a statue to honor the famous stray cat (Tombili) that used to sit in this position and watch the passers by.
One month after its installation the sculpture went missing. A comment from Turkey MP Tuncay Özkan: “They stole the Tombili statue. They are enemies of everything beautiful. All they know is hate, tears and war”. The statue was safely returned a short time later. More photos here.
7. This eagle sculpture is the world’s largest bird statue, created by Indian artist Rajiv Anchal.
Located at Jatayu Earth’s Center in Kerala, India, the sculpture took a decade to complete. Spanning 200 feet in length, 150 feet in width, and 70 feet in height, this colossal work of art depicts the mythical eagle Jatayu from the Indian epic, Ramayana.
8. This stunning marble sculpture, Ajax and Cassandra, was crafted in 2022 by renowned Italian contemporary artist Jago.
The piece beautifully captures the dramatic moment between the Greek hero Ajax and the Trojan priestess Cassandra.
9. Sendai Daikannon in Japan, the eighth-tallest statue in the world at 100 meters (330 ft).
Its serene, watchful presence overlooks the quiet urban landscape, creating a striking contrast between its massive spiritual form and the everyday city life below.
10. The great challenge by Nicolas Lavarenne. Antibes, French Riviera.
This striking bronze sculpture depicts a dynamic, elongated figure balancing on the edge of a cliff, arms outstretched as if preparing to leap into the vast blue sea below.

The Leshan Giant Buddha is carved into the cliffside in Leshan, Sichuan, China, overlooking the convergence of three rivers.
15. Close-up views of Gian Lorenzo Bernini’s marble statue of David, housed in the Galleria Borghese in Rome, Italy.
The dynamic sculpture captures the biblical hero mid-action, winding up to sling a stone. Bernini’s David is depicted with intense focus, furrowed brows, and clenched lips, conveying determination. The statue’s muscular arms and detailed hands grip the twisted ropes of the sling, showcasing Bernini’s skill in portraying tension and movement in marble. This statue contrasts Michelangelo’s famous David by capturing the hero in the midst of battle rather than in a calm, contemplative stance.
16. The Kiss of Death is a marble sculpture made in 1930 and found in Poblenou Cemetery, Barcelona.
This emotionally intense sculpture is renowned for its depiction of the delicate boundary between life and death, symbolized by Death’s kiss.
17. The Weight of Thought, bronze sculptures by Thomas Lerooy.
18. Victor Noir’s grave in Père-Lachaise cemetery, created by Patrick Magaud in 1984, has gained fame not for Noir’s journalistic work but for the legend surrounding his death and burial site.
Noir was a journalist shot dead, and his grave features a full-sized bronze statue of him lying down, as if recently shot. Over time, the statue became a fertility symbol. Legend has it that kissing the statue on the lips, leaving a flower in Victor’s hat, and rubbing the genital area enhances fertility, improves one’s sex life, or helps find a husband within a year. This has led to the lips and trousers’ bulge on the statue becoming noticeably shiny from repeated contact. In 2004, a fence was erected around the grave to prevent this practice, but public protest led to its removal. Victor Noir’s grave remains one of the most visited and talked-about monuments in Père-Lachaise.
19. The amazing handkerchief detail in this marble statue made by French sculptor Louis Philippe Mouchy in 1781.
Featuring a highly realistic handkerchief carved to appear as delicate lace, draped around the neck of the figure. The sculpture captures the fine details of the lacework, folds, and textures, showcasing Mouchy’s skill in replicating soft fabrics in hard marble, a testament to his mastery of the medium. The statue also displays the figure’s elaborate curls and formal attire, highlighting the elegance and refinement typical of 18th-century French sculpture.
20. The Ecstasy of Saint Teresa, a renowned Baroque sculpture by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, located in the Cornaro Chapel of Santa Maria della Vittoria in Rome.
This intricate marble sculpture depicts Saint Teresa of Ávila in a moment of religious ecstasy, her face expressing both pain and bliss as an angel holds a golden spear poised above her. Radiant golden rays crafted from gilded bronze descend from above, symbolizing divine light and adding dramatic intensity to the scene.
21. Luo Li Rong is a contemporary artist renowned for crafting hyper-realistic clay and bronze sculptures.
22. The Dignity statue in South Dakota, a stunning 50-foot-tall sculpture of a Native American woman draped in a star quilt.
The statue features a blend of metal and vibrant blue diamond shapes that catch the light, symbolizing the cultural heritage and spirit of the Lakota and Dakota people. The woman’s expression is serene, with her arms outstretched as if embracing the landscape around her.
24. Freedom Sculpture, Philadelphia
“I wanted to create a sculpture almost anyone, regardless of their background, could look at and instantly recognize that it is about the idea of struggling to break free. This sculpture is about the struggle for achievement of freedom through the creative process” — Zenos Frudakis:
25. The vision of Constantine by Bernini is arguably one of the most underrated sculpture in art history.
Gian Lorenzo revolutionized the art form by infusing unprecedented movement into stone.
26. The Mud Maid by Sue Hill, located in the Lost Garden of Heligan, Cornwall, UK.
Depending on the time of the year, the mud maid’s hair and clothes change when the seasonal plants and moss grow over the sculpture. More: Mud Maid – Living sculpture by Sue and Pete Hill (5 photos and video).
27. Departure, a stunning bronze sculpture by artist George Lundeen, highlighted by the frost.
The sculpture is subtly highlighted by a layer of frost, enhancing the scene with a sense of cold and quiet intimacy, as if capturing a moment of departure or waiting.
28. The Resting Boxer, crafted more than 2,000 years ago, is one of the most realistic sculptures ever made and one of the finest examples of bronze sculptures to have survived from the ancient world.
It was excavated in Rome in 1885. Its incredible features, such as its pose, gaze, broken nose, cauliflower ears, scarred face, and bruised eyes, have been enchanting the world ever since.
30. The mesmerizing details of The West Wind, a surreal marble sculpture by American artist Thomas Ridgeway Gould.
Gould’s masterpiece likely drew inspiration from Percy Shelley’s “Ode to the West Wind,” in which the west wind serves as an allegory for the cyclical nature of change and revolution:

Lux Tenebris
Jon Foreman: Created at Pensarn, Abergele. This was the last piece I made in 2021! I was glad to have gotten the chance to work on a large scale again, it had been a while! As ever I had an idea that changed as I progressed but I love that this one has curves going horizontally and vertically with a kind of half pipe effect (a curved ramp of stones either side). Also very lucky to have had the chance to capture the sea engulfing it. Although it was coming in very fast it was coming very calmly which allowed me to get plenty of photos, got my feet wet for this shot!Crescent
Jon Foreman: Created at Lindsway Bay, Pembrokeshire. I’m so used to following the circle round further that its hard to break the habit. Glad to have managed it with this one though! It really feels like it merges into the sand, which is something that I’m not sure I’ve succeeded in doing in the past. At least not as well as this one.Dissicio Quadratum
Created at Freshwater West.Circumflexus
Jon Foreman: Created for Llano Earth Art Fest Texas. This is the most intensive work I’ve created and took four days to complete! I initially started with the largest stones making the back of the circle, as the stones got smaller I began to realise the time that would be involved. I’d love to know how many there actually are! Photo by Laurence Winram Photography.Fluidus
Jon Foreman: Yes it looks like a jellyfish, no its not meant to be one. I’m not trying to suppress any imagination but for me I’m essentially trying to create something that doesn’t yet exist so that attachment to something that does exist gets on my nerves haha also feels like its oversimplifying the work a bit… But call it what you want haha!This one was actually created before “Peruersum” (The 4 day piece created at LEAF) and is what Peruersum was based on. The difference being that I didn’t have the time fill a full circle for this one so I got the opportunity at LEAF. I love creating the familiarity between pieces of work without directly repeating something. Having said that, i don’t know that I could directly repeat a piece of work without it becoming a tiny bit different!
Also the sand was really annoying that day and every time I put a stone into the sand it created the cracks you can see between the stones, interesting effect i suppose
Acervus Circlus
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West. I love working like this, finding colours that contrast well and placing on top of one another. Very satisfying work to do, showing freshwater Wests colours in a different way, although I usually add white too I thought amongst these white may stand out too much.Expletio Duo
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West. This piece is 1 in a 3 part set that I’m trying to get made. Many of you will have seen “Expletio” which is a single spiral using these same colours and this fractal style of working. I shall at some stage be creating the third in the set which will be a triple spiral in the same style! Anyway this one proved more fiddly than the previous version, I think I must have downscaled it a bit and that coupled with cold/windy weather made for difficult work. Got there in the end though!Druid Spiral
Jon Foreman: Created at Druidston I love working with the slate at this beach, definitely has a different vibe and colour, I’ll have to get back there again soon!Sinking Circle
Jon Foreman: Although I don’t consider myself an especially good photographer I’m very happy with how this one turned out, aside from the work itself looking good (and with this angle showing the incline more clearly) aside from the work I think I caught the atmosphere of the day which isn’t often very obvious in my work! Also love the water making the edge of the stones glow and they disappear into the distance, I’m all about depth within the sculpture why not outside the sculpture too.Lumen
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West. A couple of years back I created a very similar piece to this, the only difference being that the stones were previously placed flat. I feel the sense of movement is enhanced with them placed this way really radiating outward as they disperse.Nether Flower
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West. Couldn’t resist sharing this angle with the shadows! This one got a little bit messy in the middle because of the nature of the placement in the space available. I have to start in the middle and slot the next layer behind the previous so the more I add the less space there is in the small “hole” I made for this. So yeah they got a little bit squashed but I can live with that!Above Below
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West. Another mushroom creation, couldn’t resist making use of the massive branch of driftwood. Again these are just stones balanced on sticks accept where they go over the driftwood. A fun one for sure… More mushrooms to come!Shroom Sheet
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West I’ve done quite a lot now with shrooms, yes they’re stones balanced on sticks, no – its not as difficult as it seems! .. until you start putting them very close together… But until creating this piece I’ve yet to work with them while incorporating colour (or more precisely colour change) as with this one! I’ll likely do more at some stage!Obnatus Luna
Jon Foreman: These stones are often buried under the sand when there’s been particularly high tides so I have to hope they’re not buried every time!Flos Tholus
Jon Foreman: At Freshwater West. The only plan I had was to make triangles that go from large in the middle to small on the outside, which, in essence is what i did. However it does really resemble the flower of life when seen from above. You’ll have to wait for that shot though! Stay tuned.
Direct
Jon Foreman: Direct, 2025. Created fairly recently (08/09/2025) at Poppit sands, a first for me making stoneworks. Had a great time that week with a bunch of Land Art friends, more work to come from that time and more shots of this work too! P.S its pretty big, those far strands of stones are longer than they look, its just the angle!More: 9 Leaf Sculptures That Stir the Soul in the Forest (Art by Jon Foreman)

Sculptures That Blend With Nature (10 Photos)
Content warning: See 10 awesome sculptures that mix art and nature. From giant clothespins to zippers in the ground, these works turn ordinary places into something unforgettable.
Public art can make a plain place worth stopping for.
These sculptures use grass, trees, water, sand, and open space as part of the work.
Here are 10 sculptures from around the world: a giant clothespin pinching the ground, a zipper opening a lawn, and a bench waiting in a slingshot. Small everyday ideas, made very large.
More: 30 Sculptures You (Probably) Didn’t Know Existed
🪵 Skin 2 — By Mehmet Ali Uysal, originally in Chaudfontaine Park, Belgium 🇧🇪
Made for Parc Hauster in Chaudfontaine, near Liège, Belgium, Skin 2 looks like a wooden clothespin pinching the ground. Turkish artist Mehmet Ali Uysal turned a clothespin into a sculpture so large that the lawn becomes part of the work.
💡 Nerd Fact: The original Chaudfontaine installation is no longer a regular park stop: Atlas Obscura now marks the site as permanently closed and notes that the sculpture was no longer in the park in its April 2022 update. The work still appears in gallery records: Pi Artworks lists Skin 2 as a 2010 sculpture measuring 700 × 800 cm, courtesy of the municipality of Liège.
🤲 HAND and PARK TREE (The Caring Hand) — By Eva Oertli and Beat Huber in Glarus, Switzerland 🇨🇭
In the Volksgarten in Glarus, Switzerland, the work known as The Caring Hand rises around a living tree. Beat Huber documents the installation as HAND and PARK TREE, realized with Eva Oertli. The oversized concrete fingers make the tree look held and protected.
💡 Nerd Fact: Beat Huber says the idea began in 1990 as an art-in-architecture proposal for a new agricultural school, but it was shelved because there was not enough space or money. When it was finally made for Skulptura 04 in 2004, it was planned to last only four months. Public pressure changed that: private donors raised CHF 43,700, and Glarus received the hand as a gift from the public.

🏸 Shuttlecocks — By Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen in Kansas City, Missouri, USA 🇺🇸
In the Donald J. Hall Sculpture Park at The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Missouri, giant badminton birdies sit in the grass. The work, called Shuttlecocks, was created by Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen. It looks like a huge game stopped mid-rally and nobody came back to clean it up. The museum lists each shuttlecock as nearly 18 feet tall, about 16 feet across, and 5,500 pounds.
💡 Nerd Fact: Oldenburg and van Bruggen’s idea was architectural, not just oversized. The Nelson-Atkins says they imagined the museum building as the badminton net and the lawn as the playing field, then placed four shuttlecocks as if a rally had frozen on both sides of the “net.”
🪟 Window with Ladder – Too Late for Help — By Leandro Erlich in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA 🇺🇸
Leandro Erlich’s Window with Ladder – Too Late for Help shows a white ladder leading to a brick wall with an open window. The wall appears to float above the field with no house attached. The work is now in the Sydney and Walda Besthoff Sculpture Garden at the New Orleans Museum of Art.
💡 Nerd Fact: NOMA lists the work’s hidden support system as a steel underground structure, but the context is more serious than the engineering. It was first installed in 2008 in a vacant lot in New Orleans’ Lower Ninth Ward for Prospect.1, in an area devastated by Hurricane Katrina.
🌳 Give — By Lorenzo Quinn, now in Pietrasanta, Italy 🇮🇹
Give by Italian artist Lorenzo Quinn shows two giant hands holding an tree. The hands sit low in the grass, making the tree look newly planted and protected.
💡 Nerd Fact: Halcyon Gallery described Give (this time a olive tree) as a gift from Quinn and Halcyon Gallery to Pietrasanta, first unveiled in Florence’s Uffizi Gardens in 2020. Quinn’s biography says it later stood outside Palermo Cathedral before being permanently installed in Pietrasanta’s International Park of Contemporary Sculpture.

🚀 Schleudersitz — By Cornelia Konrads, made for Neustadt an der Donau, Germany 🇩🇪
German artist Cornelia Konrads built Schleudersitz with a wooden bench, rubber, steel cable, and the trees on site. It looks ready to launch across the grass. Sitting there might feel like trusting the artist a little too much.
💡 Nerd Fact: The German title Schleudersitz means “ejection seat,” and the location made the joke sharper. Sculpture Network records the 2010 work as part of the Flying Objects exhibition on a former vineyard, now a leisure park, overlooking the Danube Valley.
🧷 Corridor Pin, Blue — By Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen in San Francisco, USA 🇺🇸
In the Barbro Osher Sculpture Garden at the de Young Museum in San Francisco, Corridor Pin, Blue stands over the garden like a sewing tool left in the wrong scale. Created by Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen, the blue base and long silver pin make it hard to miss.
💡 Nerd Fact: This giant safety pin is not alone. NOMA’s collection lists another Corridor Pin, Blue as edition 3/3, while the Nasher Museum identifies an artist’s proof with the same 255 × 256 × 16 inch dimensions. The “tiny” domestic object has siblings in more than one city.
🤐 Zip — By Mark Richard Hall in the Hamptons, New York, USA 🇺🇸
This grass-and-water zipper is best identified as Zip, a private Hamptons commission by British sculptor Mark Richard Hall. The oversized metal zipper opens the lawn into a narrow water feature, making the garden look unzipped.
💡 Nerd Fact: This image is an easy caption trap. It often circulates online as a Yasuhiro Suzuki sculpture in Tokyo, but stronger sources point to Hall. Mark Richard Hall’s own studio lists a commission called Zip in the Hamptons, and Architectural Digest identifies a stainless-steel zipper sculpture by Hall embedded in the grass at a Southampton home. Suzuki’s verified zipper work is the boat-based Zip-Fastener Ship, which uses a wake to “unzip” water.
🌸 Hallow — By Daniel Popper, formerly at The Morton Arboretum in Lisle, Illinois, USA 🇺🇸
Daniel Popper’s Hallow is a monumental figure of a woman opening her chest. The hollow space inside is framed by hands, carved hair, and trees in bloom around the work. It was installed near Meadow Lake at The Morton Arboretum in Lisle, Illinois.
💡 Nerd Fact: Hallow belonged to Popper’s Human+Nature exhibition, which the Morton Arboretum described as his first major U.S. exhibition and largest anywhere at the time. The Arboretum now notes that the exhibition has concluded, but Popper’s own text for the work connects Hallow to grief, self-expression, growth, and healing rather than a simple “nature goddess” reading.

🌀 Augere — By Jon Foreman, created at Druidston, Wales, UK 🇬🇧
Jon Foreman arranged natural stones in tight circles on the sand at Druidston, Wales. In a 2025 post, Foreman identified the work as Augere. The piece changes as the tide moves in. More: Amazing Sculptures by Jon Foreman! (12 Photos)
💡 Nerd Fact: Foreman’s land art is not built to survive the coast. In an interview, he says the tide washes a work back to the tide line and he returns the next day to “an empty canvas”. So with pieces like Augere, disappearance is not a failure. It is part of the schedule.

4. This colossal sculpture was created nearly 450 years ago by Flemish sculptor Giambologna as a symbol of Italy’s Apennine mountains. Standing at nearly 14 meters (45 ft) tall, it was commissioned by Francesco de Medici, the Grand Duke of Tuscany, in 1579.
Positioned above a pond, the statue features a chamber in its head where Francesco would sit and fish at night. When a fire was lit inside, the Colossus’s eyes glowed red, and smoke billowed from its nostrils, creating a striking visual effect.

6. Not the most amazing statue, but definitely an amazing story. In Istanbul, Turkey, they made a statue to honor the famous stray cat (Tombili) that used to sit in this position and watch the passers by.
One month after its installation the sculpture went missing. A comment from Turkey MP Tuncay Özkan: “They stole the Tombili statue. They are enemies of everything beautiful. All they know is hate, tears and war”. The statue was safely returned a short time later. More photos here.
7. This eagle sculpture is the world’s largest bird statue, created by Indian artist Rajiv Anchal.
Located at Jatayu Earth’s Center in Kerala, India, the sculpture took a decade to complete. Spanning 200 feet in length, 150 feet in width, and 70 feet in height, this colossal work of art depicts the mythical eagle Jatayu from the Indian epic, Ramayana.
8. This stunning marble sculpture, Ajax and Cassandra, was crafted in 2022 by renowned Italian contemporary artist Jago.
The piece beautifully captures the dramatic moment between the Greek hero Ajax and the Trojan priestess Cassandra.
9. Sendai Daikannon in Japan, the eighth-tallest statue in the world at 100 meters (330 ft).
Its serene, watchful presence overlooks the quiet urban landscape, creating a striking contrast between its massive spiritual form and the everyday city life below.
10. The great challenge by Nicolas Lavarenne. Antibes, French Riviera.
This striking bronze sculpture depicts a dynamic, elongated figure balancing on the edge of a cliff, arms outstretched as if preparing to leap into the vast blue sea below.
11. This is how the Statue of Unity in India looks like. It’s the tallest statue in the world: standing at 182 meters (597 ft) tall, it’s nearly three times the height of the Statue of Liberty.
This monumental statue of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, a key leader in India’s independence, stands on a massive platform with an observation deck, emphasizing its grandeur and scale.

More: The incredible ocean statue of Neptune (Poseidon) in Gran Canaria, Spain
14. Leshan Giant Buddha in China (800 AD) At 71 meters (233 ft) tall, this is the tallest pre-modern statue on Earth.
The Leshan Giant Buddha is carved into the cliffside in Leshan, Sichuan, China, overlooking the convergence of three rivers.
15. Close-up views of Gian Lorenzo Bernini’s marble statue of David, housed in the Galleria Borghese in Rome, Italy.
The dynamic sculpture captures the biblical hero mid-action, winding up to sling a stone. Bernini’s David is depicted with intense focus, furrowed brows, and clenched lips, conveying determination. The statue’s muscular arms and detailed hands grip the twisted ropes of the sling, showcasing Bernini’s skill in portraying tension and movement in marble. This statue contrasts Michelangelo’s famous David by capturing the hero in the midst of battle rather than in a calm, contemplative stance.
16. The Kiss of Death is a marble sculpture made in 1930 and found in Poblenou Cemetery, Barcelona.
This emotionally intense sculpture is renowned for its depiction of the delicate boundary between life and death, symbolized by Death’s kiss.
17. The Weight of Thought, bronze sculptures by Thomas Lerooy.
18. Victor Noir’s grave in Père-Lachaise cemetery, created by Patrick Magaud in 1984, has gained fame not for Noir’s journalistic work but for the legend surrounding his death and burial site.
Noir was a journalist shot dead, and his grave features a full-sized bronze statue of him lying down, as if recently shot. Over time, the statue became a fertility symbol. Legend has it that kissing the statue on the lips, leaving a flower in Victor’s hat, and rubbing the genital area enhances fertility, improves one’s sex life, or helps find a husband within a year. This has led to the lips and trousers’ bulge on the statue becoming noticeably shiny from repeated contact. In 2004, a fence was erected around the grave to prevent this practice, but public protest led to its removal. Victor Noir’s grave remains one of the most visited and talked-about monuments in Père-Lachaise.
19. The amazing handkerchief detail in this marble statue made by French sculptor Louis Philippe Mouchy in 1781.
Featuring a highly realistic handkerchief carved to appear as delicate lace, draped around the neck of the figure. The sculpture captures the fine details of the lacework, folds, and textures, showcasing Mouchy’s skill in replicating soft fabrics in hard marble, a testament to his mastery of the medium. The statue also displays the figure’s elaborate curls and formal attire, highlighting the elegance and refinement typical of 18th-century French sculpture.
20. The Ecstasy of Saint Teresa, a renowned Baroque sculpture by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, located in the Cornaro Chapel of Santa Maria della Vittoria in Rome.
This intricate marble sculpture depicts Saint Teresa of Ávila in a moment of religious ecstasy, her face expressing both pain and bliss as an angel holds a golden spear poised above her. Radiant golden rays crafted from gilded bronze descend from above, symbolizing divine light and adding dramatic intensity to the scene.
21. Luo Li Rong is a contemporary artist renowned for crafting hyper-realistic clay and bronze sculptures.
22. The Dignity statue in South Dakota, a stunning 50-foot-tall sculpture of a Native American woman draped in a star quilt.
The statue features a blend of metal and vibrant blue diamond shapes that catch the light, symbolizing the cultural heritage and spirit of the Lakota and Dakota people. The woman’s expression is serene, with her arms outstretched as if embracing the landscape around her.
24. Freedom Sculpture, Philadelphia
“I wanted to create a sculpture almost anyone, regardless of their background, could look at and instantly recognize that it is about the idea of struggling to break free. This sculpture is about the struggle for achievement of freedom through the creative process” — Zenos Frudakis:
25. The vision of Constantine by Bernini is arguably one of the most underrated sculpture in art history.
Gian Lorenzo revolutionized the art form by infusing unprecedented movement into stone.
26. The Mud Maid by Sue Hill, located in the Lost Garden of Heligan, Cornwall, UK.
Depending on the time of the year, the mud maid’s hair and clothes change when the seasonal plants and moss grow over the sculpture. More: Mud Maid – Living sculpture by Sue and Pete Hill (5 photos and video).
27. Departure, a stunning bronze sculpture by artist George Lundeen, highlighted by the frost.
The sculpture is subtly highlighted by a layer of frost, enhancing the scene with a sense of cold and quiet intimacy, as if capturing a moment of departure or waiting.
28. The Resting Boxer, crafted more than 2,000 years ago, is one of the most realistic sculptures ever made and one of the finest examples of bronze sculptures to have survived from the ancient world.
It was excavated in Rome in 1885. Its incredible features, such as its pose, gaze, broken nose, cauliflower ears, scarred face, and bruised eyes, have been enchanting the world ever since.
30. The mesmerizing details of The West Wind, a surreal marble sculpture by American artist Thomas Ridgeway Gould.
Gould’s masterpiece likely drew inspiration from Percy Shelley’s “Ode to the West Wind,” in which the west wind serves as an allegory for the cyclical nature of change and revolution:

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.

The 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.

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.

Diving Into the World of Odeith’s Anamorphic Graffiti
Portuguese street artist Sergio Odeith, also known as Sérgio Odeith, has gained international recognition for his jaw-dropping 3D graffiti pieces that defy the limits of perception. In this blog post, we’ll explore 20 of his most astonishing works and delve into the world of this master of illusion.🔗 Follow Odeith on Instagram
Odeith’s Background and Style
Odeith began his graffiti career in the 1980s, honing his skills on the streets of Lisbon. Over the years, he has refined his technique and developed his signature style, characterized by bold colors, intricate details, and mind-bending optical illusions (read more about him later in this post).
The Art of Creating 3D Graffiti
Odeith’s 3D graffiti art is a perfect blend of skill, perspective, and creativity. By employing anamorphic techniques and masterful shading, he transforms ordinary walls and objects into realistic three-dimensional scenes that appear to leap off the surface.Odeith’s Signature Subject Matter
Odeith is known for tackling a wide range of subject matter in his work, from animals and insects to urban landscapes and fantastical creatures. His pieces often feature a sense of movement and depth, drawing viewers into his vivid, illusionary world.
Exploring Odeith’s Most Astonishing Works
Among Odeith’s most remarkable pieces are his larger-than-life murals of animals, including a majestic lion, a menacing crocodile, and an otherworldly praying mantis. These works not only showcase his technical prowess but also highlight his ability to breathe life into his subjects.
Odeith’s Impact on the Street Art Scene
Odeith’s innovative 3D graffiti art has earned him a reputation as one of the most talented and influential artists in the street art world. His work has inspired countless other artists and raised the bar for what is possible with spray paint and a blank canvas.
Odeith’s Background and Style: A Deeper Dive
Born in Damaia, Portugal, in 1976, Sérgio ‘Odeith’ first picked up a spray can in the mid-1980s, painting signatures and doodles on his neighborhood walls. It wasn’t until the mid-1990s that he encountered graffiti artists in Carcavelos, where the movement was gaining momentum. This sparked a passion for graffiti that led him to paint illegally on street walls and railway lines in and around Lisbon.
Odeith’s impressive evolution as an artist is due in part to his dedication to painting large-scale murals in various neighborhoods throughout Damaia, Carcavelos, and Amadora. Although he dropped out of school at the age of 15 and never received any formal art training, Odeith’s talent for drawing and his relentless self-taught approach to his craft led him to become the renowned artist he is today.
In 2003, Odeith adopted his current moniker, and by 2005, his innovative use of the anamorphosis technique began garnering international recognition. This “Somber 3D” style, as he later called it, involves painting on 90-degree corners or flat walls to create authentic, large-scale compositions of insects or objects that give a striking 3D optical illusion effect. Many of these works, painted in abandoned spaces, quickly went viral due to their realism and technique.
Odeith briefly lived in London after closing his tattoo shop in 2008, but he has since returned to Lisbon, where he now focuses exclusively on studio work and walls. Despite his lack of formal training, Odeith has become a pioneering force in the world of street art, with his dark anamorphic style and passion for the craft setting him apart from other artists.

Lux Tenebris
Jon Foreman: Created at Pensarn, Abergele. This was the last piece I made in 2021! I was glad to have gotten the chance to work on a large scale again, it had been a while! As ever I had an idea that changed as I progressed but I love that this one has curves going horizontally and vertically with a kind of half pipe effect (a curved ramp of stones either side). Also very lucky to have had the chance to capture the sea engulfing it. Although it was coming in very fast it was coming very calmly which allowed me to get plenty of photos, got my feet wet for this shot!
Crescent
Jon Foreman: Created at Lindsway Bay, Pembrokeshire. I’m so used to following the circle round further that its hard to break the habit. Glad to have managed it with this one though! It really feels like it merges into the sand, which is something that I’m not sure I’ve succeeded in doing in the past. At least not as well as this one.
Dissicio Quadratum
Created at Freshwater West.
Circumflexus
Jon Foreman: Created for Llano Earth Art Fest Texas. This is the most intensive work I’ve created and took four days to complete! I initially started with the largest stones making the back of the circle, as the stones got smaller I began to realise the time that would be involved. I’d love to know how many there actually are! Photo by Laurence Winram Photography.
Fluidus
Jon Foreman: Yes it looks like a jellyfish, no its not meant to be one. I’m not trying to suppress any imagination but for me I’m essentially trying to create something that doesn’t yet exist so that attachment to something that does exist gets on my nerves haha also feels like its oversimplifying the work a bit… But call it what you want haha!
This one was actually created before “Peruersum” (The 4 day piece created at LEAF) and is what Peruersum was based on. The difference being that I didn’t have the time fill a full circle for this one so I got the opportunity at LEAF. I love creating the familiarity between pieces of work without directly repeating something. Having said that, i don’t know that I could directly repeat a piece of work without it becoming a tiny bit different!
Also the sand was really annoying that day and every time I put a stone into the sand it created the cracks you can see between the stones, interesting effect i suppose
Acervus Circlus
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West. I love working like this, finding colours that contrast well and placing on top of one another. Very satisfying work to do, showing freshwater Wests colours in a different way, although I usually add white too I thought amongst these white may stand out too much.
Expletio Duo
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West. This piece is 1 in a 3 part set that I’m trying to get made. Many of you will have seen “Expletio” which is a single spiral using these same colours and this fractal style of working. I shall at some stage be creating the third in the set which will be a triple spiral in the same style! Anyway this one proved more fiddly than the previous version, I think I must have downscaled it a bit and that coupled with cold/windy weather made for difficult work. Got there in the end though!
Druid Spiral
Jon Foreman: Created at Druidston I love working with the slate at this beach, definitely has a different vibe and colour, I’ll have to get back there again soon!
Sinking Circle
Jon Foreman: Although I don’t consider myself an especially good photographer I’m very happy with how this one turned out, aside from the work itself looking good (and with this angle showing the incline more clearly) aside from the work I think I caught the atmosphere of the day which isn’t often very obvious in my work! Also love the water making the edge of the stones glow and they disappear into the distance, I’m all about depth within the sculpture why not outside the sculpture too.
Lumen
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West. A couple of years back I created a very similar piece to this, the only difference being that the stones were previously placed flat. I feel the sense of movement is enhanced with them placed this way really radiating outward as they disperse.
Nether Flower
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West. Couldn’t resist sharing this angle with the shadows! This one got a little bit messy in the middle because of the nature of the placement in the space available. I have to start in the middle and slot the next layer behind the previous so the more I add the less space there is in the small “hole” I made for this. So yeah they got a little bit squashed but I can live with that!
Above Below
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West. Another mushroom creation, couldn’t resist making use of the massive branch of driftwood. Again these are just stones balanced on sticks accept where they go over the driftwood. A fun one for sure… More mushrooms to come!
Shroom Sheet
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West I’ve done quite a lot now with shrooms, yes they’re stones balanced on sticks, no – its not as difficult as it seems! .. until you start putting them very close together… But until creating this piece I’ve yet to work with them while incorporating colour (or more precisely colour change) as with this one! I’ll likely do more at some stage!
Obnatus Luna
Jon Foreman: These stones are often buried under the sand when there’s been particularly high tides so I have to hope they’re not buried every time!
Flos Tholus
Jon Foreman: At Freshwater West. The only plan I had was to make triangles that go from large in the middle to small on the outside, which, in essence is what i did. However it does really resemble the flower of life when seen from above. You’ll have to wait for that shot though! Stay tuned.
Direct
Jon Foreman: Direct, 2025. Created fairly recently (08/09/2025) at Poppit sands, a first for me making stoneworks. Had a great time that week with a bunch of Land Art friends, more work to come from that time and more shots of this work too! P.S its pretty big, those far strands of stones are longer than they look, its just the angle!

Welcome to Miramar, a beautiful beach town in Argentina that is now the home to Martín Ron‘s latest breathtaking mural. Towering 35 meters high on the city’s water tower, this artwork has given new life to a beloved local icon.
Remembering his childhood vacations spent at the coast, Ron decided to recreate those feelings of endless possibilities and adventurous summers. He asked Salvadipaola and nina.casado to model for him, capturing them in a moment of refreshing splashing fun. The end product? A 360-degree mural that can be admired from various points in the city.
The beach town brought back fond memories of childhood holidays spent at the coast for Ron. Those hot, summer days when the world seemed full of promise and adventure served as his inspiration for this mural.
The mural, painted on the water tower of the beach town, was a significant challenge. But the result is a breathtaking piece of art that gives new life to an iconic location in Miramar. It offers viewers a refreshing experience, showcasing the joy of a simple splash in the water.
