Chris Jordan melukiskan beberapa statistik mengejutkan

Artis Chris Jordan menunjukkan gambaran mempesona tentang rupa budaya Barat. Gambar super-besarnya melukiskan beberapa statistik yang sulit dibayangkan -- seperti jumlah gelas plastik yang kita pakai setiap hari.

Collective, unconscious behaviors can add up to astonishing consequences when multiplied by millions. One million plastic cups are used on US airline flights every six hours, and more than 400,000 Americans die each year from smoking cigarettes. By turning overwhelming statistics into giant, detailed images, the artist hopes to spark emotion and responsibility that numbers alone cannot inspire. The real challenge, he suggests, is to translate awareness into personal and cultural change.
