About Ben
Ben is an artist and teacher based in Tel Aviv. In the theatre, Ben has directed and starred in a wide range of shows of different genres and styles - drama and comedy, from Shakespeare to contemporary. He has performed in Canada and Australia, and now works as a touring coordinator for a theatre in Tel Aviv.
As a spoken-word poet and storyteller, Ben has written 4 collections centering around various themes, which serve as poignant reflections of different periods in his life. As an avid collaborator, Ben worked intensely with a graphic designer and several other visual artists to compile 2 of his collections into an immersive multi-disciplinary book titled ‘Man Is / Just Names’ (2023).
Ben is also a sound designer and audio engineering student. He has recorded some of his poetry collections and created a sonic world in which to anchor the pieces through immersive and cohesive sound design. Most recently, Ben released his best and most elaborate audio project yet: an hour-long opus titled ‘Go Bright’ (2024).
