Inkuzart, a street artist known as the 'Uzbek Banksy,' has released a video of his latest work. This time, the artist delved into a deep football metaphor, emphasizing the inseparable bond between the national team and its loyal fans.
The new graffiti depicts fans holding a painted mirror with a succinct question: 'Who is No. 12?' This image directly references a global football tradition.
Fans are often called the '12th player' because their active support from the stands helps the team as tangibly as having an extra person on the field. This connection is so important that many legendary clubs have officially retired the number 12 jersey for fans, and it is not used by players. There is even a special award for the best fans bearing the same name.
Inkuzart's work has become a powerful symbol of national unity during a landmark period for the country. Soon, the Uzbekistan national team will participate in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
