26 Awkward And Hilariously Relatable Flyers I Hang In Public Spaces (New Pics)

The flyers themselves are awkward, but it’s equally awkward when you’re putting one up, and someone spots you doing it... I mean, hanging a "smell your own farts" workshop flyer, for instance, is pretty weird if someone sees me posting it around!

When I’m traveling, I try to get prime locations — places like Times Square or Broadway in New York, where there’s a lot of foot traffic. However, when I’m in my hometown and posting a flyer a day, it can be overkill to paste them in the streets too much, and I don’t want to get too many angry letters from the city. In Ghent, where I live, we have a dedicated street for legal graffiti. I usually stick to that spot for a few reasons:

1. Part of the street is covered, so the flyers are protected from the elements and last a bit longer.
2. It’s a legal spot for graffiti and street art, so I won’t get angry letters from people.
3. It’s a well-known street for tourists, and since I started using it as my regular spot, I’ve noticed a lot of international people following my Instagram page.

I hope to put a smile on people’s faces when they spot a flyer. In the beginning, I was still finding my style, and sometimes my flyers were too awkward or weird. Now, I try to find a middle ground — topics that are relatable to the average person, that make people smile or feel something.

For me, this started as a passion project in 2021... and it still is, because I make absolutely no money from it at the moment. I just enjoy making these art pieces and putting them up in the streets.
