With this latest edition of our Streets: World Roundup article, we turn our eyes to Las Vegas for our featured mural from ROA. The Belgium-based artist withstood the desert heat for four days of hard work before completing this piece with the image of a horny toad, a local species that can squirt blood out of its eyes to deter predators. Painted for the Life Is Beautiful Festival, the wall can be found on Stewart and N. 6th Street.
Other notable public art comes from Velvet & Zoer – Poland (source), Bifido – Italy (source), Dale Grimshaw – UK (source), Bordalo II – Portugal (source), Usugrow – USA (source), Vhils – France, 1010 – Germany (source), Titifreak – Brazil, Jaz – USA, Hense – USA (source), Dadi Dreucol – Spain, Momo – France (source), Killyrslf – USA (source) and Kid Acne – UK (source).
