Street Style – An Illustrated Documentary

An ongoing project.

I started this project by combining two of my biggest passions; photography and drawing - oh, and walking through the city streets looking for interesting moments and people. I have a tendency to stare at people, but what might be seen as a slightly rude behavior is actually pretty funny. My eyes are usually drawn to small details like fabric patterns, a lock of hair blowing softly in the wind or a subtle hand gesture.

Since January 2018, I decided to create illustrations based on these photos, using my photographs an inspiration. For me, street-style documentation is a lab for human culture research.

As a Tel Aviv-based artist and a city mouse, Tel Aviv is my first stop on a journey to create a worldwide, illustrated street-style encyclopedia.
