Russian Designer JaRa Infuses Her Images With Rich Emotion

Russian artist Yaroslava Krutakova, AKA JaRa, created these peculiar, yet captivated images of scenic shots overlain with dramatic, emotional characters.

The characters portrayed include one that looks like a tiny white fetus, or perhaps a young Casper the Ghost, sobbing while sitting on a Metro sign as well as crying manga characters in kimonos. Another shows the white outline of a gigantic crying Japanese woman with a woven backpack attempting to pick people up from a bridge using her ghostly chopsticks. Then things turn a little naughtier...
