French visual artist "guerrilla artist" JR who exhibits freely in the streets of of the world visited Cambodia in 2009. as the part of the project "Inside Out". I took this photo in Phnom Penh just a view days later where hi displayed the portraits of evicted people. The government was quite fast to react and removed it within a week. In 2010 JR has been awarded TED Prize. Two years earlier of this project, he traveled to Israel and did the same with the portraits of Israeli and Palestinian people on both sides of separation wall.
