If you look closely enough, you can see the magic that urban artist Mehdi Ghadyanloo has brought to Tehran's streets. Above are just some of his amazing artworks that blend streetscape with serenity.

In an interview with Your Middle East, Ghadyanloo attributes his surreal images to his dreams in which he would "always fight with the gravity of the earth and... felt that people here in Tehran need more fun in the streets". Ghadyanloo believes that Tehran lacks urban planning and his paintings bring much needed color. According to Ghadyanloo, people are showing interest in his work and like his murals.
