JR began by creating art on the streets of Paris, later crossing borders and working all around the world – on the map displayed in the gallery, one can gain a global perspective of his journey and impact through each geographic point he crossed. From the optical illusion at the Louvre Museum in Paris to the intervention at the high-security Tehachapi prison in California, JR splits his time between creating monumental works and projects with local communities, in refugee camps, conflict zones, and other locations where the artist chooses to use art as a tool for sociopolitical transformation.
