This is the stunning work of French "undercover photographer" JR in the slums of Rio de Janeiro. You may recognise him from the recent Street Art exhibition at the Tate Modern were he was one of 4 international artists to transform the outside of the gallery. The guys an amazing photographer that manages to capture real human emotion in everyone of his shots. He likes to super size these photos and paste the up in the dead of night in places where the image can take on whole new meaning. Its a really simple but powerful method of communication which often carries and important message.
