This work by artist Emilio Lopez-Menchero is called 'L'Homme Bulle' (~'The Speech Bubble Man'). During a month it stood on the corner of a busy street in Brussels. Everyone was were encouraged to use their freedom of expression by writing on it.

Someone apparently wrote "I wish I was taller..." on it as high as he could reach. Someone else stuck a news paper article about corruption in Belgium on it, and other people just wished a friend a happy birthday. Oh, and someone has a crush for Batman.
Also nice to see a lot of different languages together.
