Hieroglyphics found in a basketball court?

Dimitris Ntokos changes the whole scenery of a simple basketball court with his unique symbols, leading our thoughts straight to hieroglyphics! This kind of script is well known from the Egyptians as well the Minoans of Crete... Egyptian hieroglyphic symbols used to be engraved in sacred places from the priests. These letters were accurate representations of animals and things, used in religious literature and funerary rituals connecting people with higher and holy ideals.

Dimitris Ntokos is representing us his linguistic form while speaking through it. All we have to do is let ourselves read starting from the top left!
