Eyebombing is the act of setting googly eyes on inanimate things in the public space. Ultimately the goal is to humanize the streets, and bring sunshine to people passing by.
The creators of this interesting idea are hoping to inspire aspiring eye boomers to help out, and bring a little smile to fellow citizens running about their busy daily lives.
The idea and name were hatched by 2 Danish eyebombers, in an effort to define and refine a largely neglected and overlooked form of street art.
Eyebombing as urban art is only about the message itself. It’s not a fight for the public space, its to be seen as a lovely addition to that space. An addition that hopefully brings a smile, and brightens someones day. The eyebomber use humour and wit to reach its audience, not vandalism or provocation.
If you want more inspiration then there is a whole website dedicated to the art of eye-bombing Eyebombing! Thanks to Minieco.co.uk where I saw this post first.
