Tiny painted figures on a wall – Barcelona urban art

Francisco de Pájaro – Art Is Trash

The video from 2026-04-22 documents another work by Francisco de Pájaro, better known as Art Is Trash. Since 2009 he has turned rubbish left on the pavement – boxes, bags, mattresses, old furniture – into wild, comic figures painted on the spot. That makes every figure a one-off: once the street is cleaned, it is gone, and often only videos like this one remain. His figures poke fun at throwaway culture, power and the established art world.
