Ehud Graf
Biography Ehud Graf
Ehud Graf
is a visual artist. Born and raised in the suburbs of Tel Aviv Ehud absorbed the urban atmosphere.
As a second child to a middle class family his mum have chosen to let him
develop his creative features, what have later on proved to be the very right
decision.
Surrounded with music and computer games Ehud found himself drawn to the
graphic design and multicolorfulness. He began drawing his own works at the
age of 15 converting patterns he saw in his imaginative perception into reality.
As technology evolved making Photoshop and other software available to users
Ehud Graf found himself occupied many hours a day. He would soon use those
tools as his own brush.
Being an autodidact Ehud found an advertising agency that appreciated his
ability to recognize the main idea regarding a product/service. His designs were
accurate as well as humorous buying him the freedom to create his own style at
work.
Nearly a decade later in his early 30’s Ehud quit his job and went to the far east
to find inspiration and let his mind wonder. A few months later he returned to
Tel Aviv with a new concept.
The Art Factory was born as a “state of mind” encapsulating all the creative
features Graf has developed over the years. At 35 the freedom to design without
trying to sell something becomes his visual art. The viewer that was used to
figuring out the “language” of adverts is left to his own device enjoying the
impossibility reflecting from Graf’s psychedelic mind.
At the Art Factory the user/customer/surfer can also enjoy original music Ehud
Graf recorded himself as well as “Industrial Hippies” - A musical project with
an Israeli artist Guy Mesika. In the same manner the listener could find the
absurdity alongside sounds from different eras mixed into one track.
“I love making one’s laugh as I trust we are in the process of understanding It is
all a temporary Ride.”
