Video: Urban installations from FilthyLuker

If suddenly you are walking down the street and see that the tentacles of an octopus are peeping out of the windows of a neighboring building, and the nearest tree is looking at you with curiosity with round eyes - do not rush to think that you are crazy. Most likely, FilthyLuker, a well-known master of urban installations, just visited a little earlier.
Perhaps the most famous installation by FilthyLuker is a huge inflatable octopus that appeared in a French city last June. Green tentacles peeping out of the windows and balconies of the building give the impression that their owner somehow emerged from the depths of the sea and either chose a multi-storey building as his new place of residence, or simply got stuck in it.
But the octopus is far from the only original work of the author. With its light, inflatable plants appear on construction sites, a rocket crashes into buildings, and bushes and trees acquire charming eyes. It is simply impossible not to notice some installations, others can only be seen by an attentive passer-by. But they all carry a clear environmental message, urging people to pay attention to nature in the city.
Finding at least some information about FilthyLuker's personality is not an easy task. Surprising the audience with his amusing installations, the author himself prefers to remain in the shadows. Well, if you are interested in his other works - welcome to the FilthyLuker website.
