Adi Sand – The Copsons – Street Art & Graffiti

Adi Sand – The Copsons

Adi Sand is a Bezalel graduate architect, sculptor and Israeli graffiti artist.
Adi Sand is one of the Israeli graffiti artists who from the beginning of his career to the present day has maintained a clear and uniform graphic language based on comics and cartoons. Over the years, Adi Sand has created hundreds of characters he calls "copsons." These are small characters 10-30 cm tall. The characters exist in a wounded, angry and painful world to fight his war in order to achieve justice and love.

You can find Adi Sand's works all over Tel Aviv and also a relatively large number of works on the seventh floor at Tel Aviv Central Station.

About me

My name is a Dror Hadadi and I have always loved and been attracted to the subversion art of graffiti. The urban art, which takes place in the public space 24/7, captivates my heart.

In my view, graffiti, is a free entry ticket to a global exhibition that is constantly changing, growing and evolving.

The graffiti creates and drives an artistic dialogue between the viewer, the architecture and the urban life. Sometimes graffiti disrupts, hurts,
and shatters its presence on the wall. Sometimes it brings the public wall to life, allowing us a colorful and exciting glimpse into the graffiti artist's private world – and our own world as viewers.
In both cases, instant communication and dialogue is created between the viewer and the message left for him on the wall.
The graffiti, due to its presence in the urban-public space, engages in dialogue with us on a daily basis, enabling us to communicate with the space near us, which serves as decor for our living and urban environment.

Enjoy!
