AN enormous, turned-on-its-side agricultural trailer became a powerful public canvas for Israeli street artist Benzi Brofman following the horrific October 7 Hamas terrorist attacks on kibbutzim and towns along Israel’s border with Gaza.
Situated opposite Kibbutz Sarid in the Jezreel Valley, the artist — who lives in the nearby town of Migdal HaEmek — created a heart-wrenching image of hostage Shira Bibas and her two ginger-haired young sons, Ariel and Kfir.
