The latest mural by Dutch pop-surrealist artist Leon Keer was recently unveiled in Sweden, with the unique teacup mural popping out from the side of an apartment building.
With careful shading and layering techniques. Keer creates a stack of teacups that look like they're about to fall over into the street. On each cup, he crafts a scene that represents different settings and landscapes—all highlighting the environmental harm that's currently impacting the planet. This includes a large oil spill, piles of litter on a beach, melting glaciers, and wildlife who have succumbed to a barren habitat. These themes tie into the visuals of the teetering teacups, as together, they suggest that without intervention the world as we know it is doomed to collapse and shatter.
