INSIDE/OUT


One of the best examples of using art to create change around the world is a project called INSIDE OUT. Inspired by JR’s large‐format street "pastings", INSIDE OUT is a global platform for people to share their untold stories and transform messages of personal identity into works of public art. 

When Susanne and I were asked to create a mural for the kumpanai community gardens in Hannover, we decided to produce our version of the INSIDE OUT project.  We pasted several extra-large black and white prints from our mukucity photo project on the walls of the old brick building.  


Then we added color with words and images to help communicate our message that the garden as well as our city draw their strength from the diversity.
