The flatfish, painted in DZIA’s signature swirling, graphic style, appears to swim effortlessly across the wall, embodying both movement and tranquility. With playful, circular patterns and expressive details, DZIA turns this creature into an eye-catching work of art. The vibrant colors and bold lines inject energy into the natural surroundings while simultaneously paying homage to the aquatic life in the area.
This mural is part of DZIA’s larger mission through his Animalinas project, where he aims to reintroduce nature into urban settings. Over the years, DZIA has crafted murals that portray wild animals, often in decaying urban spaces, bringing a touch of wilderness and poetry into the city. His distinct approach blends tenderness with a sense of adventure, as seen in the expressive fish that now graces the walls of Natuurpark Rivierenland.
DZIA’s work has spanned the globe, with murals across Europe, the U.S., and beyond. Whether in the heart of the city or in nature parks like this one, his art captivates and invites viewers to rethink the relationship between urban spaces and wildlife. Stay tuned for more exciting street art projects from DZIA & Sons as they continue to blend art, humor, and nature across various landscapes.
