Street artists, just like all Israelis, are affected by security concerns. Aside from showing increasing levels of creativity in their work, artists have been expressing sharp, witty political messages.

"Tel Aviv invites many different opinions, as a city that's much more open than others," says Taub. "Tel Aviv has work which, if were created in Jerusalem, would quickly be covered up, because they offend certain audiences."
