 Discover how Vanyu Krastev turns ordinary objects in Bulgaria into laugh-out-loud street art with just a pair of googly eyes!

Bulgarian street artist Vanyu Krastev adds a touch of humor to urban spaces by attaching googly eyes to everyday objects.

Armed with googly eyes, the children explored their environment, turning ordinary shapes into imaginative faces. This unique form of street art is simple but also creative. It invites everyone to see the world with a fresh perspective.
