IACOVOS LOIZOU

Iacovos Loizou, also known as Mr Kok, is a self-taught artist based in Nicosia, Cyprus. He studied urban planning in London, currently works in real estate and is an artist on weekends. Through his unconventional work, which is defined by a mix of text, diagrams and drawings, he explores themes like Cypriot social norms, art censorship, dreams and insecurities. These predominantly dark themes are married with bright colours and a comic style of drawing creating a unique contrast.
