WEEK 6 - DAY 4 - Graffiti and Portraits

WEEK 6 - DAY 4 - Graffiti and Portraits

A French artist by the name of JR has incorporated portraits and graffiti into an art project in the attempts to change perceptions. Watch the following Ted Talks.


Answer the following questions:

1. Why do you think JR choose to depict the street gang members and the Israeli and Palestinian workers with goofy face poses?

2. In the slums of Kenya and Brazil why do think JR chose women as his subject?

ACTIVITY 1 - WEEK 6 - CULMINATING TASK - 3 TIMES ME

STEP 1: Take 3 self images with posed faces, all 3 using different perspectives (angles), when taking the photos keep in mind the message you included on day 1 slide - I AM A PERSON WHO...
