In the months since TED Prize Winner JRâs global participatory art project was announced, thousands of photos have been uploaded and more than 150 huge posters sent out as the French artist looks to transform urban landscapes with portraits.
Now, JR is starting to document what he calls the Inside Out Project through video from people around the world that have taken to his call to action and pasted their portraits in the streets.
The YouTube channel, launched Thursday at TED Global in Edinburgh, Scotland, also includes a short film by Director Alastair Siddons, who will be releasing one new video each month documenting the project. The first video shows how the project evolved in Tunisia following the countryâs recent revolution.
You can see some of the videos below, with projects taking place in locations ranging from Bronx, NY to Lima, Peru:
