Description
English: 16 Leopold Kompert street, Tel Aviv - "They see me rollin', they hatin'" artwork by MissK 2018 - hebrew braille "הפּחד מעוור, כּבר הייִנו עיוורים בּרגע שׁהתעוורנו, הפּחד עיוור אותנו והפּחד גורם לכך שׁנמשׁיך בּהיות עיוורים." (Fear is blind, we were already blind the moment we became blind, fear blinded us and fear causes us to continue being blind.) : artwork by VERED DROR

A unique graffiti style is that of Vered Dror, who uses braille. This type of artwork originated from when Vered was in Zagreb, Croatia for a graffiti competition. After days of planning her masterpiece for the competition, she noticed public places vandalized with swastikas painted on them. Dror asked several locals why nobody was cleaning these horrific symbols up and everyone answered by simply saying “I didn’t notice.” Outraged, she abandoned her previous plan for the graffiti competition and placed all around the city a single statement in braille: “I didn’t notice, I didn’t see a thing.” Vered went on to unanimously win the competition.
