Naples’ Street Art Evolution: From Soccer Heroes to Rap Icon

It had become one of the symbols of last year, that mural depicting Victor Osimhen and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, young and blue champions who had led Napoli to the 3rd championship in its history. However, from these hours, the mural is no more: in the heart of Forcella, in fact, the new mural dedicated to Geolier, replaces that of Osi and Kvara.

The 23-year-old rapper from Secondigliano – fresh from great international success and the second place at Sanremo 2024 – takes space on one of the walls of a building located near the Annalisa Durante school. Both murals were made by the same street artist, known to most as Teso1.

The work today dedicated to Geolier was immediately welcomed with enthusiasm by the neighborhood, becoming immediately viral on social media given its special location and the equally special “replacement” that took place. The one for the rapper is not the first street work seen in Naples in these weeks.
