Running the Numbers - An American Self-Portrait
Here’s some digital art that will get you thinking…

BIG pictures that hang in a gallery, made by digitally ‘pasting’ thousands of images.
Hard to explain - so you should visit Chris Jordan’s website… but I’ll try;
On a 5 foot square image is a cool black & gray 3D looking sphere… when you look closer you see the sphere is made up of what appear to be cans. In fact, the image is 28,000 42-gallon barrels, the amount of oil consumed in the United States every two minutes.
So - each image also relates a frightening fact too.
Lots of large image files on the page - but worth the wait.
