Art matters when...

It moves others to see, act, feel, or think differently than they did prior to interactiving with it.

There are few times in the history of culture where there is an opportunity to reclaim their national identity. This photo project attempts to do just that by negating the ruler with the visual language commonly associated with propaganda. This truly inspiring work from JR points to the opportunity we all have as part of a collective to represent our selves as well as our nation.

I also recommend checking out his work in Israel/Palestine and head over to insideoutproject if you want to participate in this work.
