Adi Sened Tel Aviv
Little street art figures
Kathrin from Tel Aviv
Wherever you go in Tel Aviv, you will notice small square figures that seem to live on the walls all around. Adi Sened or “Sened” - as he signs every piece - is the “Father” of this little creatures called “Kufsonim” (Hebrew for mini-boxes).
While studying architecture, he developed the geometrical shapes already in 2000. In the beginning, he hand-painted them, now they are stencils and they interact often with their surroundings - many times in a humourous way. You will find a Santa Claus dragging weapons as toys in his bag, a version of the famous Banksy - a box-figure throwing a hello kitty-"flower", or Adam and Eve fighting over the apple.
You can find a whole bunch of the Kufsonim on the 7th floor of the Central Bus Station, but also all over Florentin on Washington Boulevard, Florentin Street, Ben Atar Street and others - also in the center of Tel Aviv around Rothschild and in Neve Tzedek.
