When JR, the French photographer, was awarded the 2011 TED prize, he created the global participatory art project Inside Out<\/em>.<\/strong><\/a> The project provides a platform where communities from anywhere in the world can submit their photographic portraits and get them printed as oversized black-and-white posters. These posters get sent back for the local organisers to paste in locations in their communities\u2014on walls, buildings, or any other structures\u2014and create \u2018actions\u2019 that make the issues that they cared about visible. In the years since, Inside Out has printed nearly 600,000 portraits for more than 2,600 actions in 152 countries.<\/p>\n

Many Inside Out<\/em> actions have sought to make peace and tolerance visible, to stand up against violence, to celebrate coexistence, and to show respect for diversity. An action in Bogota in 2016 called \u2018The Story Behind Our Wrinkles<\/a>\u2019<\/em> sought to encourage people to vote in the peace agreement referendum. Another Colombian action in 2022 celebrated the \u2018Power of Hybrid Identity<\/a>\u2019 in Cauca, a region deeply affected by Colombia\u2019s decades-long conflict. This action, representing those on the frontlines of ongoing violence, sought to reframe diversity as their greatest strength, challenging the oft-used explanation for the conflict that Colombia\u2019s multiethnicity was the source of the country\u2019s divisions.<\/p>\n

In 2012, an action called \u2018The Celebration of the Real Afghanistan<\/a>\u2019<\/em> pasted happy portraits of ordinary Afghans on the security barricade around the headquarters of the multinational military mission in Kabul to demonstrate to foreigners how there is hope and laughter in the country and to encourage Afghans to appreciate the diversity of their people that want a peaceful future. In 2022, a group in Cyprus created \u2018People who Dream of Peace and Connection,\u2019 bringing together portraits of people from all over the divided island to display them as one and challenge the conflict narratives that bred ongoing resentment and aggression.<\/p>\n

Inside Out<\/em> builds on JR\u2019s own form of “artivism,” which has seen him paste giant portraits all over the world in projects such as Face to Face, where he put portraits of Israelis and Palestinians in monumental formats on both sides of the West Bank wall. With the Inside Out team setting a standard visual frame for the photos\u2014just a single-person portrait, no writing, no logos, nothing else in the frame\u2014and taking charge of the image production, local organisers are freed up to concentrate their creative energies on putting their images out into the world and using them to create connections. This involves finding good locations to paste or install the portraits, generating attention around their message through actions that can involve the actual collective pasting itself, demonstrations, and press work. Local organisers can also maximise their potential exposure by using Inside Out\u2019s<\/em> social media channels.<\/p>\n

\u2018The experience of pasting is so visceral\u2014thousands of thousands of people have bonded elbow deep in wallpaper glue, holding ladders steady for one another, pulling the image of a grandmother or a teacher or a shop clerk taut while a neighbour smoothes the edges. And the witnessing\u2014the moment when passersby crane their necks, kids drag their friends over to see traffic stops. Whole communities feel legitimised by beauty at such scale. It is playful and also undeniably profound\u2019.<\/em><\/p>\n
