👵👦 “À mon époque” — By Hetaone Graff & Monsieur S in Sathonay-Camp, France 🇫🇷

Located at 1 Rue des Écoles, Spacejunk Lyon describes the mural as a participatory project made with six young people from the town’s youth club. One bright facade, two generations. Hetaone Graff and Monsieur S stage a simple conversation about memory, play, technology, and how every era eventually becomes “back in my day.”

💡 Nerd Fact: The “Camp” in Sathonay-Camp has real local history. The town traces its identity through military-camp stories, from a Julius Caesar tradition to the 19th-century camp established near Lyon, so a mural about generations sits in a place whose name already carries its own “back in my day” archive via the official town history.

🪷 “Beyond the Surface” — By Paul Watty in Goirle, Netherlands 🇳🇱

Street Art Cities documents Beyond the Surface at Melkweg 22 in Goirle, as one of two Paul Watty murals built around De Leij, the small river that shaped the area. The dragonfly has glass wings, a blue body, and jewel-like reflections. Real windows cut through the scene as small reminders that this is still a brick building.

💡 Nature Nerd Fact: A dragonfly is basically a river creature with a flying second act: the British Dragonfly Society explains that dragonfly larvae live underwater before emerging as winged adults, sometimes after years below the surface.

🚀 Rocket Cat — By ABYS & VALER in Nancy, France 🇫🇷

This wall has no interest in behaving. ABYS and VALER launch a wide-eyed cat on a grinning rocket across a burning orange sky. Pink lettering explodes behind it. Saturday-morning chaos, but with tight graffiti control.

💡 Space Cat Fact: France really has a space-cat chapter: Félicette, a former stray, was launched on a 1963 suborbital mission and later memorialized with a bronze statue, as Smithsonian Magazine reports.

🌈 Chromatic Portraits — By ACHES in Perth, Australia 🇦🇺

Painted for the City of South Perth No More Blank Walls Mural Festival 2026, ACHES’ mural sits at Village Green Shopping Centre in Karawara. The portraits overlap like memories or different versions of the same face seen through tinted glass. The white wall helps: nothing gets in the way of the transparent cyan, magenta, yellow, green, and red layers.

💡 Color Nerd Fact: ACHES’ color language has a design-school backbone: Street Art for Mankind notes that he works with subtractive CMYK and additive RGB color theories, where overlaps can either darken or brighten depending on the system.

🏴 Blinded by the Flag — By Banksy at Waterloo Place, London, UK 🇬🇧

Banksy’s flag-blinded figure appeared at Waterloo Place, and AP reported that the artist confirmed the sculpture on April 30, 2026 after posting footage of the overnight installation. The figure steps forward, but the flag he carries blinds him. Simple from far away. Sharper up close. It is public art that leaves the street with something to argue about.

💡 Site Nerd Fact: Waterloo Place is already a stage for national memory: Historic England’s Heritage Calling notes that John Nash laid it out at the foot of Regent Street, with nearby monuments tied to the Napoleonic wars, which makes Banksy’s flag-blinded figure feel less like a random plinth and more like an argument with the site.

💋 Smoked Gaze — By OMI in Bali, Indonesia 🇮🇩

OMI uses the narrow wall like a close-up film still. Glossy lips, black hair, a cigarette or stick at the mouth, and small plants pushing into the bottom edge. Bali gives the mural its weather. The wall gives it attitude.

🟠 The Wall Has Arms — By Denis Dendy in Berlin, Germany 🇩🇪

Painted for Urban Canvas Parkhaus Wedding at Brunnenstraße 105–109, the mural is documented in Vagabundler’s Berlin street-art map. Denis Dendy makes concrete look soft and almost weightless. The orange orb reads like a private sun, held by long white arms in a clean 3D illusion.

🧿 Electric Eyes — By Fumo Miles in Talavera de la Reina, Spain 🇪🇸

Fumo Miles painted this for A Todo Color 2026, the Talavera de la Reina urban-art solidarity event organized by Max Color. He uses the diagonal edge of the architecture instead of fighting it. Turquoise eyes, a purple fringe, tattooed fingers across the face. The portrait looks boxed in and ready to move.

💡 Craft Nerd Fact: Talavera de la Reina is not just another festival backdrop: its ceramic making tradition is part of a transatlantic craft heritage inscribed by UNESCO, shared with El Puente del Arzobispo in Spain and Puebla/Tlaxcala in Mexico.

🍇 The Fancy Cat — By Jurgen Wieland in Lima, Peru 🇵🇪

Jurgen Wieland gives the city a cat with royal table manners. Drapery, grape leaves, fruit, and a dark purple drink turn it into a classical painting that took a wrong turn into a pixel-art arcade. Weird, elegant, and very funny.

🎈 Balloon Swing — By SETH in Paris, France 🇫🇷

On Rue Émile-Deslandres, at the corner with Rue Croulebarbe, SETH returned to a major wall in Paris’s 13th arrondissement after an earlier work there was covered during thermal insulation work, as Sortir à Paris reported. A girl sits on a swing beneath a massive bunch of balloons, lifted into a painted sky-box on the wall. Gentle, but the scale turns it into a city-sized wish.

💡 Paris Nerd Fact: Paris’s 13th arrondissement has become one of the city’s big open-air mural zones; Paris je t’aime says huge murals have transformed parts of the district into an open-air museum, with Boulevard Vincent Auriol alone holding dozens of giant works.

🌊 Storm Boat — By Soria Torres Gustavo Alonso, Weak Palencia & Marte Stu in Uruapan, Mexico 🇲🇽

This long Uruapan wall moves like a storm at sea. A black-and-white fishing boat pushes through the center, with turquoise and purple graffiti pressing in from both sides. The letters feel like weather too.

📚 “Les gamins de Belleville” — By SETH in Paris, France 🇫🇷

SETH’s own mural portfolio lists Les gamins de Belleville as a Hypermur / Paris Culture project from September 2025, and Paris Secret places it at 51 boulevard de Belleville. The mural climbs the building like a stack of stories: one child reads, one watches, one paints a small sun, and the whole narrow wall becomes a vertical playground for curiosity.

💡 Neighborhood Nerd Fact: Belleville was once outside Paris: it was a separate municipality until the 1860 annexation, a detail that gives “Les gamins de Belleville” an extra local punch because the neighborhood has long carried its own identity inside the capital, as Lonely Planet’s Belleville guide notes.

🚬 Marge Simpson Graffiti — Kotlasskaya Street 6, Arkhangelsk, Russia 🇷🇺

On this battered wooden house at Kotlasskaya Street 6 in Arkhangelsk, Marge Simpson looks out of place and exactly at home. Yellow face, smoke line, pearls, broken windows, peeling green boards, winter-bare trees. Funny, melancholic, and odd in the best way.

💡 TV Nerd Fact: Marge is older TV history than many people realize: Britannica notes that The Simpsons began as shorts on The Tracey Ullman Show in 1987 before becoming a half-hour series in December 1989.

🥶 “mortalkombat” — By Dsquet Siete in Uruapan, Mexico 🇲🇽

Dsquet Siete turns the wall into a frozen fight scene. The masked fighter glows in electric blues and metallic highlights. Smoke, shadow, and a ghostly dragon pull the eye into the dark. Fan-art intensity at mural scale.

💡 Game Nerd Fact: Sub-Zero is more complicated than one frozen fighter: the official Mortal Kombat 30th Anniversary roster explains that both Bi-Han and Kuai Liang have worn the Sub-Zero mantle, while Britannica dates the original arcade game to 1992.

🐸 “Ride On” — By Alain Welter in Diekirch, Luxembourg 🇱🇺

Lycée Classique de Diekirch introduced the project as “Ride on – de neie Mural vum Moler vu Koler” after two weeks of work with Alain Welter. A grinning toad-like rider balances on a donkey in mid-flight, with paper, feathers, ducks, poppies, and harvest details spinning around it. Funny, busy, and still tightly composed.

💡 Luxembourg Nerd Fact: Alain Welter’s “Moler vu Koler” nickname folds into his origin story: Luxembourg Collection notes that his “Make Koler Kooler” project painted around 15 façades in his home village of Kahler and helped turn it into an urban-art open-air museum.

🌸 “River Bloom” — By Loretta Lizzio in Perth, Australia 🇦🇺

River Bloom brings soft botanical drama to 19 Welwyn Ave in Manning, where the mural sits on the rear wall of BWS for No More Blank Walls. Loretta Lizzio paints the woman almost as part of the landscape: hair, vines, flowers, and branches drift together in green-gold light. The service-lane setting makes the bloom stand out even more.

🌽 “VESTIGIOS” — By FLUXUS / Pavel Jones & MÂS1CREW in Bucaramanga, Colombia 🇨🇴

Vanguardia describes VESTIGIOS as a mural of more than 200 m² at Parque Giordano Bruno, created to reconnect Bucaramanga with Guane memory and Santander’s ancestral symbols. FLUXUS / Pavel Jones and MÂS1CREW center the figure around a clay vessel, corn, sky, river, and land. Rooted, calm, and huge.

💡 Ancestral Nerd Fact: Guane memory is also textile memory: Biblioteca Digital de Bogotá describes an exhibition of 71 cotton pieces spun and woven by the Guane before the Spanish arrival, so the mural’s ancestral theme reaches beyond pottery and landscape into cloth.

⚡ “ZEUS” — By Marcus Debie aka GOMAD in Aachen, Germany 🇩🇪

GOMAD says he created ZEUS for Blitzschutzbau, a lightning protection firm in Aachen; the wall is at Kellershaustraße 50. The mural is a storm-wall: a mythic face staring through orange sky, blue geometry, and bright bolts of electricity. Beard, clouds, and circular shapes lock into one facade, half ancient god and half graphic thunderstorm.

💡 Myth Nerd Fact: This wall is a perfect match for a lightning-protection company: in Hesiod’s myth, the Cyclopes were the divine smiths who forged Zeus’s thunderbolts, as Britannica explains.

🎸 Large Portrait of Lemmy from Motörhead — By MERLIN Classics & BZKS in Thessaloniki, Greece 🇬🇷

BZKS identifies the mural as a 12 x 5 m commission for Eightball Club, painted by MERLIN Classics and BZKS. The grayscale Lemmy portrait is stern and huge, while the background burns in red, orange, and purple. The artist at the bottom brings the scale home. This is a whole facade performance.

💡 Rock Nerd Fact: The name Motörhead has a pre-Motörhead life: Lemmy wrote “Motorhead” during his Hawkwind era, and Louder’s song history traces how that track later became tied to the band’s own mythology.

🕶️ Surreal Glasses — By DON FATO 7 in Medellín, Colombia 🇨🇴

DON FATO 7 paints the face as if it is being pulled through layers of motion. Oversized glasses, a curled mustache, a magenta wall, and cream abstract shapes collide on a slanted surface. The whole thing feels restless.

💃 “The Texas Kiss” — By Eduardo Kobra in Houston, Texas, USA 🇺🇸

GraffitiStreet reports that Kobra’s new Houston mural reimagines the 1945 V-J Day kiss through a contemporary Texan lens, produced and curated by Street Art for Mankind for Big Art Bigger Change. At Texas Ave & Caroline St, the couple is wrapped in Kobra’s geometric color against the Lone Star. A public celebration at skyscraper scale.

💡 Photo History Fact: Kobra is remixing one of the most debated American victory images: Smithsonian Magazine identifies the woman in Alfred Eisenstaedt’s 1945 Times Square photo as Greta Zimmer Friedman, and modern readings often discuss the image through public memory and consent as much as celebration.

🐀 Spray-Can Beast — By Gerardo Mser emserone in Xalapa, Mexico 🇲🇽

Gerardo Mser emserone turns the wall into a broken portal and sends a furious spray-can creature through it. Claws, teeth, orange eyes, oversized can. It feels like graffiti grew muscles and started swinging.

🍭 Half Skull, Half Sweet — By Giselle in Glasgow, UK 🇬🇧

Giselle balances cute and unsettling with tight control. The pink lollipop and graffiti letters bring the sweetness. The half-skull face pulls it darker. Candy, danger, and street attitude in one character.

💡 Festival Nerd Fact: Yardworks is a serious Glasgow street-art engine, not just a festival label: SWG3 says its first Yardworks Festival in 2017 brought more than 125 local and international artists across 400 metres of walls, Scotland’s largest graffiti and street-art gathering at the time.

🦖 Monster City Showdown — By SAW ONCE RURAL BOYZ & Harfo in La Algaba, Spain 🇪🇸

This wall goes blockbuster mode. SAW ONCE RURAL BOYZ and Harfo stretch a ruined city across the panels, with a giant reptilian monster on one side and a roaring gorilla on the other. Smoke, fire, helicopters, teeth, claws. A movie trailer on concrete.

💡 Kaiju Nerd Fact: The monster-wall energy has a name-history hiding behind it: Britannica explains that Godzilla’s Japanese name, Gojira, combines words for “gorilla” and “whale,” which is basically blockbuster creature logic in one word.

💜 “Cult of St Enoch” — By Smug in Glasgow, UK 🇬🇧

Glasgow’s City Centre Mural Trail identifies this new Smug work as Cult of St Enoch, a refreshed take on an earlier mural reimagining St Enoch, also known as St Thenue, mother of Glasgow’s patron saint, St Mungo. At 6 George Street, the grayscale figure stands steady while purple foxgloves rise around her like living architecture.

💡 Plant Nerd Fact: Foxglove is beautiful but loaded with medical history: Kew’s Plants of the World Online notes that Digitalis purpurea is a source of digitoxin, connected to the heart drug digitalis.

🫒 Olive Mother — By Sock Wild Sketch & TETAL in Cerignola, Italy 🇮🇹

Sock Wild Sketch and TETAL shared this Cerignola production through their duo Deux Mains Peinture, with TETAL thanking the local Festival dell’Ambiente team for the opportunity. The building becomes a wooden icon: olive leaves crown the face, cracks run through the skin like old timber, and pale streams fall down the lower wall. It feels tied to land, harvest, and the quiet work of feeding people.

💡 Olive Nerd Fact: Cerignola and olives are deeply linked: Qualigeo describes La Bella della Daunia PDO as large green and black table olives from the Bella di Cerignola variety, produced in a defined area of Apulia.

🎨 “Caipira Picando Fumo” — By Eduardo Kobra in Itu, Brazil 🇧🇷

Eduardo Kobra reframes Almeida Júnior’s 1893 painting Caipira Picando Fumo inside a giant spray can. Local coverage in Itu reports that the 25-meter-tall mural was donated by Instituto Kobra and used about 200 cans of spray paint. Rural memory meets spray-can culture.

💡 Art History Nerd Fact: This mural is also a hometown loop: Google Arts & Culture lists Almeida Júnior, the painter of the 1893 source work, as born in Itu, so Kobra is repainting an Itu artist’s rural icon back onto Itu itself.

🧊 “CHILL WINSTON” — By Jake Wood in Brighton, UK 🇬🇧

Jake Wood and MurWalls unveiled CHILL WINSTON on the side of Indelible Fine Art at 9–10 Jew Street in Brighton, in honour of VE Day. Wood drops Winston Churchill into red, white, blue, drips, splashes, and street energy. The pose feels like a classic public image; the background pulls it into graffiti. History, with a spray can in hand.

💡 British Nerd Fact: The title is doing double duty: “Chill Winston” also echoes a British pop-culture catchphrase, with The Guardian noting that people still say the line to actor Steven Mackintosh after his role in Guy Ritchie’s Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.
