A new graffiti piece by renowned artist Banksy has surfaced on Instagram, igniting fresh speculation and inquiries about both its message and its location.
The artwork features a lighthouse painted on a beige wall, accompanied by the phrase “I want to be what you saw in me.” However, the exact site remains undisclosed.
While a second image captures two individuals walking their dogs, it provides no further hints as to the location. Many social media users theorize that the piece might be situated in Marseille, southern France. Others are delving into the meaning of the phrase and the symbolic implications of the lighthouse’s shadow.
As per usual, authenticity can only be confirmed through Banksy’s official Instagram account, as the artist’s identity has been a closely guarded secret for years.
Although numerous pieces convey strong political messages—addressing topics like immigration, the war in Ukraine, or homelessness—some works delve into more enigmatic themes.
