Kuwait is upping its game by encouraging more Street Art and artists to come and create – like this new one by Skount completed as part of the Alwan Art Festival.
In his typical cosmological and spiritual manner, Skount invokes the planets as experienced by figurative vessels in folkloric inspired attire. Here “In/Out Inner World Projection”, the title of the mural, you have an idea of the artist is bringing to the wall after he says he had a few days experience learning about the Kuwaiti people and the culture.

“Each individual comes from a determined inner ‘universe’ that is made of a story, culture, ideology, beliefs, norms, religions and different perceptions,” he says. He would like the mural to talk about “how we share and receive information from other individuals from another different inner “universe”, and how these experiences and perceptions “can make the individual psychologically project a world or inner universe that combines both peoples.”
The project is organized by Visual therapy and we are pleased to share these new images with BSA readers.
