Many of the amazing displays include the words "I can't breathe," which were Floyd's last words to the officers who were applying force to his neck and back for nearly nine minutes, reported TMZ.
Many served as a reminder of the inhumane way in which he died. Some murals also gave a shout out to the #BlackLivesMatter movement and included names of other black people who died at the hands of the police and never got justice.
Although the four officers involved in Floyd's killing have now been arrested and charged, justice is far from being served.
In the meantime, here are some of the murals we spotted online:
