His art reveals his inner thoughts, his feelings and his vision as a message to the world. A story followed by over 21,000 people.

Shinlamed

At first glance, you’ll think it is a black and white marker drawing, but the art of Seffy Fisher, better known as Shinlamed, is much more than that. Seffy developed a complex and very unique technique using only vinyl cuttings. By taking out small parts of his drawing, he generates stunning artworks. His art refers to religion, as a mirror of his teenage life in an Orthodox family. Don’t miss his next exhibition in one of Israel’s leading galleries.

Dudi Ben Simon

Dudi Ben Simon, a creative director living in Tel-Aviv, became quickly an Instagram sensation. He creates optical illusions, with everyday objects carefully photographed to make each piece stand out. Once connected, these unrelated objects create artworks and surprise every viewer. Always look twice at the image – you may have missed a detail.

Dar Rotem

Israel Eliahu

His approach to art combines virtual research and working with raw materials such as images, posters, dictionary pages, magazines etc. According to the chosen topic, he then gives a powerful and honest interpretation. His paintings can be viewed as a single piece telling his own story or combined, giving an even more formidable vision. Discover this great artist and his unique approach.
