Kyros Taghian, born in 1988 in Vienna, is an Austrian artist having his
roots in Iran.
His perception of art is very likely to be the result of growing up in a
melting pot of culture and language.
In the age of 13 he was drawn to graffiti and street art, soon
developing a passion and skill for typography and calligraphy.
Just as much as Kyros as a person is not superficially to be put into a
box – neither is his work: to categorize his labour into interior design,
space branding or cooperative identity would be reducing – his
creative flow using geometrical symbols, calligraphy and ornaments
is rather one component and ingredient of his artistic melting pot.
What is to be said about his work is the following: Kyros invites his
audience to have a glimpse of his playful view on life by breaking
stereotypes of form and structure and embedding the subject in
unusual sorroundings and settings.
Projects
- VÖSLAUER Space BrandingIn cooperation with the agency "Demner, Merlicek & Bergmann" we designed and painted the 14 feet high "RUN" typo. The agency ist presenting the first drink dispenser, where you can get a drink by a quick run. An interactive lightsensor is percieving through runing exercises a signal - then you get a bottle of "Vöslauer" water. The station-branding is rounding off the action. #vöslauer #jungbleiben
