JR

JR is a french artist and a photographer, who describes himself as a "photograffeur" because of this large black and white flyposts he puts up in public locations.

I'm in love with the ones of the eyes, it makes me want to open my own and look more closely at the things around me because you never know what you're missing when you aren't paying attention.

Gregory Crewdson

Gregory Crewdson is an American photography. Best known for his staged American homes and neighborhoods.

I really like the one where he has a woman in kitchen like room, with flowers covering the entire floor. It makes me wonder what's going through her mind while she looks out in the distance. His work is very interesting and appealing to the eye in my opinion.
