Murales di Ozmo ed Eron (Capri: The Island of Art)
Capri (NA)
Hidden gemStreet art
The story
Murals by Ozmo and Eron inspired by the island (Eron's 'Epic Fights').
The story
«Capri: The Island of Art» is the project that brought the first large murals to the island, entrusted to two leading names of Italian street art: Ozmo and Eron. The works are in Anacapri and were created to engage with the island's symbols and myths.
What to see
Two murals. Eron signs one of his 'Epic Fights': two goats — one alive and one dead — facing each other; the goat is the symbol of Anacapri, and the work alludes, according to the artist, to the clash between opposing forces (good and evil, the island against crime). Ozmo instead paints a mermaid, a nod to the legends and classical literature tied to Capri.
