WEEKLY JOURNAL: Chris Jordan - Shark Teeth

This is Chris Jordan's work. Similar to some of the collection works shown in class this falls in the same category. I am really interested all of Jordan's collection pieces and I believe this will be similar to the path ill be following in my collection project soon to come. I like the way he takes a collection of similar images and combines hundreds of them to create a bigger picture and deeper meaning relating back to the collection. Anyone who looks at any of Jordan's "running the numbers" pieces can see right away that he has achieved his goal with each one. check out his website - http://www.chrisjordan.com/gallery/rtn/#denali-denial
This piece represents 270,000 sharks of all species killed around the world every day for their fins and is created from an equal number of shark teeth.
