What I can see
This large mural depicts a man who has been completely dazzled by financial success, but is sick because of it. The artist is world renowned INO, whose works always have social symbolism, focusing on man’s misuse of his achievements and inventions.
What I can't see
INO is the first artist who has painted a mural on a parliament building (Cyprus). He never reveals his identity, “because in art, it does not matter how you are, but what you do,” he says. He studied at the School of Fine Arts in Athens and has been active since the early 2000s, both as a student and as a graffiti writer. He always works alone because he wants his works to be entirely his, and he mainly uses acrylic paints on large-scale murals. His works are located around the world, in cities such as London, Amsterdam, Berlin, Stockholm, Milan, Rome, Zaragoza, La Rochelle, Ibiza, Miami, New York, Fortaleza, Nicosia, Frankfurt, Doha and elsewhere.
