After walking the streets of Israel this summer this graffitied 'Know Hope' was recurring on most street corner. The grammatically incorrect spelling caught my attention and it was clear that there was a statement being made. Was an individual's cry for help? After some research the artist is described as Israel's very own Banksy. The secrecy of Know Hopes identity is a talking point but the message behind the artist is that we all have something to say and everyone has a right to voice their opinion.
