The artist in question is alleged to have painted the flag of the pseudo-state on the Pentadaktylos.
The following is the statement by the Deputy Mayor of Nicosia regarding the exhibition at the Municipal Arts Center:
As Deputy Mayor of Nicosia, I would like to inform you that on Friday, June 26, as soon as I became aware of the announcement by the Ecologists’ Movement, stating that an exhibition by an artist who allegedly designed the flag of the pseudo-state at Pentadaktylos was to be inaugurated at the Nicosia Municipality’s Municipal Arts Center, I immediately made my position clear that, if this information were confirmed, the exhibition in question would have to be canceled.
Unfortunately, that did not happen.
