French street artist JR, best known for his technique of photographing inhabitants of an area & pasting the resulting imagery up on grand scale around the community has taken to the favelas of RIO DE JANEIRO in a grand project to honor the residents of one of the world’s biggest slums. The scale of this project never siezes [sic] to amaze me. One day we will plan on doing something of this level.
