JR Photography: Woman are Heroes

JR is a photographer who has traveled to many countries worldwide and has captured faces of the locals.  He set a project for himself named 'Woman'.  He travelled to third world countries such as Africa, India, Brazil and Cambodia. His aim in this project was to place large scale photographs of local woman happy or with a extreme expression.  This was to show how strong woman in difficult situations are and that they should be proud to be a woman.  These photographs were placed in many unusual places like on roofs, buses, walls, pillars and floors.  I do love JR's work, his impression of giving people hope to in hard situtations is very inspiring.
