Foto Friday: Chris Jordan
Chris Jordan's "Intolerable Beauty — Portraits of American Mass Consumption" simultaneously shows us both the horror and the beauty of mass consumption. As in "Pallets #2" above, you can see the large amount of waste that goes on in our country, but you can also see the beauty created by it. The thumbnail above really doesn't do the picture justice because it is cropped and resized. You need to head to chrisjordan.com to see the full picture!
Don't stop with this photo, though. Be sure to check out the rest of his work at chrisjordan.com . . . just click on "images" to see the rest.
I StumbledUpon this site a while back and just had to bookmark it and share it. Just this week (July 24), his art was featured on the front page of The New York Times' Art section. The article was titled "A Great Big Beautiful Pile of Junk."
