Photographic Artist Chris Jordan turns the statistics of consumerism into palpable images in his new photo series.
Please watch this video. From an artistic standpoint, it's irrelevant and the quality of the video belies what the actual work must provoke in person. The statement that it is making, which is what art is really for, is what is important. The last 60 seconds of the video is the most profound, but the whole thing must be watched in order for that last bit to resonate roundly.
This really is a great collection of work. It reminds me of the six million paper clips project.
