Art on Tuesday

Human creativity and expression is boundless.  JR is a street artist who brings humanity back into human spaces, even highly degraded spaces.

In his latest project he has photographed the faces of women living in the slums of Kiberia, Kenya and added them to the slum roofs (with a waterproof material), as well as the hillside and onto the side of a train.  As the train passes by the hillside, for a brief moment, the eyes and lower face align.
