KooKoo is proud to introduce poetic bus stops of the street artist Oren Ailam. Oren is a multidisciplinary artist who graduated from the Industrial Design Department in Bezalel who, among other things, chooses to write his poems on bus stop signs, which he prints especially in the same official place where the various public transportation companies print their signs. Each station is numbered and they are created in limited series of only 20. Sometimes Oren descends in the dead of night and replaces a bus stop sign with one of his signs for the pleasure of passers-by.
Oren Ailam, is a multidisciplinary artist who combines text and performance technology, in his works he embeds texts on street objects such as fictitious bus stops which he builds, pretends to be a municipal employee to implant poetic objects in the street, combines electronics and programming to produce interactive musical instruments and performs with texts in combination with objects With different work techniques, he has exhibited in galleries in Israel and abroad, appears at festivals and conducts art and technology workshops.
