THE EYES HAVE IT...
These large mysterious eyes started to appear along the quai of Ile St. Louis at the end of September 


and continued across several bridges




These, along with other images were installed for Nuit Blanche, an annual all night festival with venues spread around the city.  




Be sure to note the people on the quai and the bridge to get a sense of the enormity of these images.  Up close, the image itself disappears as the texture of the subject and the stone walls takes over.


This is all part of a much larger project called Women Are Heroes - check it out and watch the videos, particularly the extract for the upcoming movie and the one posted Oct. 8th which shows the mural being applied... It's worth a few minutes!
