Barbie Dolls

Chris Jordon

I am really impressed with Chris Jordan’s photographic artworks. He uses his photographic artworks to portray a specific quantity of something in the American culture. He believes that by creating these images, it would have a different effect than raw numbers alone. His underlying desire is to emphasize the role of the individual in a society that is increasingly enormous, incomprehensible, and overwhelming. Take a good look at his artworks and you will be impressed too!
