In one of Filthy Lucre’s latest projects, he added eyes to trees and bushes in the public space. They “eyes” are really just dots painted on while balloons. Both of these photos were taken in Salamanca, Spain.

Brooklyn artist D.Billy has created several site-specific installations around the city using balloons as his primary medium.
He writes:
Using colorful media such as twisting balloons, party streamers, and artist tape, I have begun to add visual representations of sound effects to public spaces as a sort of dimensional graffiti. After embellishing the found scenes and photographing the results, I leave my additions in place to engage passers-by for as long as the materials hold up. For me, this process encourages a reexamination of surroundings and objects that are usually taken for granted, and injects a hint of the fantastical surreality that I have established in my other work.
Or, at the very least, I hope someone thinks these things are kind of funny.
New York Magazine goes behind the scenes with Joshua Allen Harris, creator of incredibly awesome garbage bag balloon art.
