Worth the Watch: JR Honors Women of the World

Wooster has an amazing video posted of new work from photographer and street artist, JR. Entitled "Women are Heroes," JR installed in Paris a series of large-scale portraits of women from around the globe, focusing on their captivating (and often telling) eyes.

VernissageTV interviews him in this video about the project:




Wanna see more from JR? Check out his work in Kenya (again, titled "Women are Heroes"). Working on what little infrastructural surface is around, JR puts together some great pieces using the local trains, some residential rooftops, and the hillside.





And for those really interested, here's the a longer clip from the woman interviewed throughout the Kenya video. She is amazing!!
