You have seen them separately in cities around the world; now see them combine their imaginations in Miami at Goldman Global Arts Gallery this fall. Street artists and muralists Seth Globepainter (Julien Malland) and Millo (Francesco Camillo Giorgino) have developed the vocabulary of their respective styles over more than two decades, each influenced by illustration, surrealism, and a graphic clarity that often feels close to animation or children’s storybooks.

The mystery of each scenario is painted there before you on multi-story buildings in major metropolitan areas. Still, no two are exactly alike, and each requires you to engage your imagination to complete the story. Perpetually on tour for commercial jobs, commissioned murals, or personal adventures, the Frenchman and the Italian say they have overlapped one another 18 times in the last decade, from Shanghai to Buenos Aires, and decided to formalize that long-running dialogue in this collaborative exhibition, “Beyond,” opening September 10, 2025.

A signature mural by Seth Globepainter depicts a child peering into a swirl of vibrant color, symbolizing the imagination that children — and former children — rely upon to explain the world or escape from it. Since beginning his global travels in 2003, Seth has drawn on local cultures, myths, and social realities everywhere he works, using the child as a messenger for the community’s stories. Steering clear of cynicism, his color-rich characters remain hopeful, even amid the most difficult social or political contexts. Millo, by contrast, renders entire cityscapes in crisp black and white, often anchored by a playful giant figure who might be a child or perhaps someone who has refused to grow up. His architecture, grounded in his training as an architect, becomes a stage for adventure, where urban density is made approachable, even humorous, by oversized, childlike explorers.

Together, their collaboration in Miami shows how cleanly and boldly the two vocabularies can work in unison. Seth’s dreamlike reveries and Millo’s urban dreamscapes click together in colorful/black-and-white precision, amplifying one another’s humor, tenderness, and sense of scale. Beyond the novelty of seeing two internationally recognized muralists merge their visual languages, the show also speaks to the friendships and connections formed through years of painting walls around the globe — a reminder that, in a scene as transient as street art, some conversations endure.
