JR Project Women

Photobucket
This is amazing. Just amazing. Artist JR created a massive showcase in Kibera, Kenya called Project Women. It took over a year of planning and organizing for the artist to cover over 2,000 square meters (approx 25,500 sq ft) of rooftops with the eyes of women in Kibera. Eyes have also been put on the local train where JR also made it so that at times when the trains stop they meet with pictures of smiles on the hillside to create a face. There are also pictures on their homes. It's the most beautiful sight ever.
Jump for more pictures & please go to 28millimetres.com to see more from JR's work in Africa. It's amazing.
