In this solo exhibition, Seattle artist Chris Jordan looks at contemporary American culture through the way that we primarily see society portrayed in the media - pure statistics. Each image portrays a quantity of something - prison uniforms that represent the number of people incarcerated per year, plastic bags used by consumers every five seconds or handguns representing the number of gun-related deaths that happened in 2004. Through the use of images rather than numbers alone, Jordan hopes that his work will reach out to the public in an attempt to communicate visually the problems that people in the U.S. are facing. Statistics can feel abstract and many times make it difficult for people to connect with topics that they feel only vaguely relate to them; this project thus visually examines these vast, numerical measures of our society. Each large-scale piece is a detailed print that is assembled from thousands of smaller photographs of the actual subject matter that Jordan is discussing in his work.
