His last mural, "Surround", was posted in the NDT by the internationally renowned Italian artist Millo, which he created in Geroskipou and specifically in the tower of the Water Department, on the subject of the goddess Aphrodite.
As he says in his post, "surrounded by water to the island that hosts it, there is a female figure who looks ahead, as all lives pass through her hands"."
"A tribute to the figure of the goddess Aphrodite with the desire to emphasize the role and importance of water, the real protagonist, not only in the mural, but throughout Cyprus, which is located in such a unique location in the Mediterranean Sea, but still fights against the most dramatic water shortages in Europe," Millo says, describing his work.
At the same time, he expressed his gratitude to the city of Geroskipou and to the late former Mayor of Geroskipou, Michalis Pylidis, "who passed away prematurely", for their invitation to "paint in such a demanding place and for the great work that was done". He also thanked the curator of the project, Yiannis Sakellis.
