Street sticker The sticker is a rectangular, black and white image applied to a textured concrete pole. Its main visual element is a large, intricately drawn high-voltage power line tower (pylon) that appears to be collapsing or already fallen, its metal structure splayed across the ground. In the background, other pylons are visible, some standing, creating a sense of a landscape of industrial decay. The drawing style is stark, using thick black lines on a white background. To the right of the image, bold, capitalized text is prominently displayed. In the top-left corner, there is a small circular logo with a green background and a white letter 'A' inside.

Street sticker The sticker is rectangular with slightly rounded corners, adhered to a light grey pole. Its background is dark grey or black, covered with numerous small water droplets. Across the center, a horizontal blue stripe is visible. Overlaid on this stripe and the dark background is an illustration of a cluster of buildings in varying shades of grey and white, giving a monochrome, almost sketched appearance. These buildings are stylized, resembling apartment blocks or high-rises. Below the cityscape, a white banner with jagged ends unfurls, containing the bold, blocky text "ACAB" in black. The entire illustration (buildings and banner) has a white outline, making it stand out from the dark background. The sticker appears slightly worn at the top right corner.

Superimposed on the leaf is an intricate, light blue, stylized letter 'W' or interlocking 'V's, forming an ornate design. At the top of the sticker, white text reads 'Aldersgrense hos Weedmonopolet', which translates to 'Age limit at the Weed Monopoly'. In the bottom right corner, smaller white text states 'Tryggere Ungdom' ('Safer Youth'), accompanied by a small, light blue logo resembling a snowflake or starburst. The sticker appears to be a commentary on potential government control or legalization of cannabis, advocating for youth safety.

Street sticker The central sticker is a square, vibrant yellow design with all elements rendered in green. The dominant text is 'Oslo', with the 'O' creatively forming a hand gripping what appears to be a rifle. To the right, a six-sided die is visible, and below the word 'Oslo', several stylized bottle shapes are depicted. A small hammer and sickle emblem is subtly integrated near the base of the 'o'. Beneath the main graphic, in a smaller, cursive font, the word 'Ræfleklubb' is written. The combination of these symbols suggests a commentary that could be political, social, or related to a specific subculture in Oslo, Norway.

04 July
Street sticker The sticker features a vintage-style illustration set against a light blue background with a thin teal border. On the left, a man in a brown shirt and black pants is depicted mid-fall from an orange ladder, his body seemingly flung backward. On the right, another man, dressed in an orange shirt, dark overalls, and a cap, pushes a small, yellow, four-wheeled cart filled with dark, lumpy material, likely coal. The artwork uses bold outlines and a limited palette of muted colors, evoking a propaganda poster or social realism style. The ground beneath the figures is subtly indicated by a shadow cast by the cart.
