Bird Ballerina

Street artist JR has once again found a creative canvas for his latest wheat paper installation. In Bird Ballerina, a ballerina is sitting behind a set of bars like a caged bird, waiting to be set free. The beautifully sad image is wheatpasted across nine shipping containers at the Port Le Havre in France.
