Yes, could have easily been done in Inkscape. My point is that there is nothing in the image that identifies it as "definitely", or even "probably" having been done in Inkscape, since the original poster made the claim:
"it MUST have been created in Inkscape!"
That statement is not correct. I can tell you that as a regular user of all the major vector editors out there (Inkscape is my primary), there is nothing in the image that can not be done easily in any of them.
That said, it's great to see other artists using Inkscape. So if indeed it is true, then awesome. :)

I'm not sure what leads you to that conclusion. Maybe the artist likes the juxtaposition of very round and very sharp cornered objects? Maybe round corner rectangles would be too much middle ground, for the artist's taste? Although I certainly have no background that would enable me to be an art critic. But I think it easily could have been done with Inkscape.
Just my opinion :-)

Inkscape is one of many vector shape drawing programs out there. You would probably see more rounded rectangles in the mural if done with Inkscape shapes, as it supports adjustment handles for the corner radius and this artist seems to like haphazardly default settings for line width etc. making only small adjustments to each shape after creation in most cases. Other default handles unique to Inkscape include partial circle fills and very easy blurring of shapes, but I see none of these either. So while it could be Inkscape, I doubt it. :) There is nothing in it that is unique to Inkscape tools. My 2p -C

So I was walking near the Tel Aviv municipality building yesterday and noticed that the entire side of the ground floor was covered with a large abstract mural composed of multiple shapes. Started looking at the shapes and noticed: spirals, 3D boxes, shapes filled with a vertical stripe patterns, pie slices... And it dawned on me that it MUST have been created in Inkscape! You can see photos of the mural here: http://bit.ly/1euwWvS (I had to shorten the link - the original link has hebrew characters in it and I can't paste it correctly) The page is in hebrew but you can see the photos. The text next to the mural says the artist's name is Nurit David, that the mural has somethign to do with Peter Bruegel's "The Triumph of Death" and that the digital nature of the work has something to do with the transience of time (I'm heavily paraphrasing, translating art-speak between two languages is nearly impossible).
