The image shows a blue octopus with a red-and-yellow eye and a menacing grin.

This piece of street art was created by the well-known French urban artist GZUP. His signature motif is the octopus, inspired by the creature from SEGA’s Wonder Boy video game.

GZUP’s octopuses have spread all across France, appearing in Paris, Strasbourg, Nantes, Lille, Lyon and Bordeaux. His paste-ups can also be spotted in Brussels.
