Hila Sheleg – chooses words

Hila Sheleg defines herself as a researcher, inventor, rider, thinker and loves words in Hebrew. Among other things, Hila is also a graffiti artist who specializes in writing songs, poetry and contemplation on the walls of Tel Aviv. Hila’s textual works deal with love, relationships and life itself. Hila juggles words, plays with rhyme, double meaning and creates content that hurts the heart as well but mostly the mind.

In 2018, Hela Sheleg won the Ali Mohar ACUM Award – an award for encouraging the publication of works and these were the reasons for the award committee: ” Full of fascinating combinations and rich and fresh language, special themes that are always treated in an original way, and the special charm that solidifies all of these into songs that resonate in the head long after you finish reading them. “

About Me

My name is Dror Hadadi and I have always loved and been drawn to graffiti and street art – to language, color, subversion and art. Urban art, which exists in public space 24/7, fascinates and captivates my heart.

Graffiti and street art are a free ticket to a global exhibition, which is constantly changing, growing and developing. Graffiti creates and drives an artistic dialogue between the passerby and architecture and urban life. Sometimes graffiti disrupts, harms and etch its presence on the wall. Sometimes it brings the public wall to life, allowing us a colorful and exciting glimpse into the artist’s private world – and into our own world as viewers. In both cases, in graffiti and street art, an immediate communication and dialogue is created between the viewer and the message left for him on the wall. Graffiti and street art that takes place in the urban-public space, maintains a dialogue with us on a daily basis, and allows us to communicate with the space closest to us, which serves as a setting for our living environment and life in the urban space.

Enjoy!
