Eyes are a Window to the Soul

In 2011, JR made his TED Prize wish:

"I wish for you to stand up for what you care about by participating in a global art project, and together we'll turn the world...INSIDE OUT."

Since JR made his wish, The INSIDE OUT project has traveled from Ecuador to Nepal, and Mexico to Palestine, inspiring group actions on varied themes such as hope, diversity, gender-based violence, and climate change. Over 110,000 portraits have been pasted in 108 countries worldwide. An HBO documentary feature on the project is due for worldwide release this Spring.

INSIDE OUT 11M brought the project to the Bay Area via Photo booth Trucks, giving us two backdrops that we can use for our photo booths at Rooftop.

Two years later, in 2013:

Just received this areal view from Kenya! My team just finished installing 4000 meter square of images printed on vinyl to protect the roof of the community against the rain. This is not part of the art project "Women Are Heroes" we did 4 years ago and that is still visible on this image. Since 4 years ago, we go back every year and that's what you can see on this image.. the difference of black and white is due to how long they have been put up  This is done with no autorisation except the one of the community and with no other financing than what we raise via my artworks... Congrats to the team for helping the 40 men on the ground who put it up for their neighberhood. As one women told me years ago in Kibera " Art can be useful"  #Kenya
