🕊️ Shepard Fairey in Los Angeles, California, USA 🇺🇸

📍 See it on the map

Shepard Fairey’s new mural at Baller Art Ware shows a black hand making a peace sign among red flowers and turquoise patterns, with the words “Peace Is Radical / Violence Is Weak.” Painted for the Los Feliz Mural Festival at 3714 Tracy Street, it replaces his weathered “Make Art Not War” mural with another work about peace.

💡 Nerd Fact: Fairey painted the previous “Make Art Not War” mural here in February 2013. He created that design during the Iraq War as a variation on “Make love, not war.” Facing the Giant co-curator Pedro Alonzo explains that its Art Nouveau style draws on 1960s psychedelic and anti-Vietnam War posters.

📍 See it on the map

Moin painted a troll—or vätte—on a bridge pillar at Hälsingewall in Bollnäs. Drawing on Hälsingland’s folklore and mysticism, he made the towering character his version of the beings known locally as vitter.

💡 Comics Fact: According to Delcourt’s synopsis, Kanopé is set in 2137, after overpopulation has caused nearly all plant and animal species to disappear. A quarantined part of the Amazon remains the world’s last wild refuge and shelters former revolutionaries called “eco-martyrs.”

🎭 “Lean on me” by Studio ZEPA in Holland, Michigan, USA 🇺🇸

📍 See it on the map

Studio ZEPA painted two brightly colored portraits leaning into one another across the long facade in “Lean on me.” The artists say the mural is about supporting one another through vulnerable moments and opportunities for compassion.
