Cuban ambassador participates in the inauguration of “Water Movement Nicosia,” an artistic and reflective tribute on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the establishment of the Austrian Embassy in Cyprus.

Nicosia, Cyprus, November 30, 2025. The Cuban Ambassador to Cyprus, Rubén Pino Martínez, attended on Friday, November 28, 2025, the inauguration of the installation “Water Movement Nicosia,” an interactive and thought-provoking work by the artist Maurice Cazzolli, created to commemorate the twentieth anniversary of the establishment of the Austrian Embassy in this capital.

Temporarily scheduled in the Municipal Plaza Plateia Dimarchias in Nicosia, Cazzolli's work transforms the aforementioned urban municipal setting into a temporary space of shared water. Through 3D sensors, sound, and projections, the installation invites passersby to interact with digital waves, while drawing attention to the contrasting realities of water in Cyprus and Austria, highlighting the urgent issues caused by its scarcity, collective presence, and the invisible flows that connect people and places around the world.
