With a brief but pointed caption, the well-known Cypriot painter George Gavriel has offered his own artistic response to the Videogate controversy involving the President of the Republic and members of his inner circle.
The artwork was shared online with the phrase “Cash only” written beneath it. The painting features Nikos Christodoulides as its central figure.
In the image, the President is depicted smoking, with the smoke forming the outline of Cyprus. The visual composition functions as a symbolic commentary on the allegations raised by the video’s publication and the wider political debate it has triggered.
