JR is a French street artist who became famous for posting photographs of everyday people around cities of the world - from Paris, to the favelas of Rio, and the crumbling buildings of Shanghai. This TED talk features him sharing his stories and dreams, as well as his interesting take on the meaning of art - that we should use it to turn the world inside out.

My trip to Papua New Guinea was the perfect way to start 2011.

These photos were taken on a fish-eye lens from a canoe going down the Sepik River – the Sepik is one of the world’s greatest rivers and is over 1200km in length. The greener shot is looking out over the fjords in Tufi.

PNG was a magical place, every bit as special as I’d imagined it could be. I especially loved the endlessly changing sky.

I will not wait to love as best as I can. We thought we were young and and that there would be time to love well sometime in the future. This is a terrible way to think. It is no way to live, to wait to love.
