Chris Jordan - pictures some shocking stats

1. He talks about huge social issues; plastic cups, paper cups, smoking, plastic cancer, etc. however, the difference is that gather those enormous statistics together and translate them into a more universal visual language. Photo.
- He wants people to feel these huge probelms more deeply.
" if we can feel these issues, if we can feel these things more deeply, then they will matter to us"

2. I should put more meaning to my pictures.

3. Do people really feel more deeply when they look at those pictures? or is it just another Art that no one cares about. (because I did not actually feel strongly about those things when I looked at his photo)
-(why do they have to put in Art gallery, hard to go)

4. 'IDea'
I really like his idea about using photo to help people to feel more deeply about social issues. it is more effective then just using numbers.
