Photographic artist Chris Jordan's subject chose him. His art gives the viewer a visual sense of the vast amount of stuff we consume and teaches the importance of every individual in managing one's own consumerism.

Can you tell me where and when this interview took place, or any information about it?

@OutstandingNita Good work isn't it. I think it was on Bill Moyers' Journal on PBS right near the time I posted it on youtube. Sorry I don't have more to tell you but you can get a lot of info from the video itself.

regards, Jerry

Fascinating work. Congratulations. I too am working to present a visual images re: health care & consumerism.

Only through art, can we liberate people from themselves and save our ever shrinking small planet.

Chris Jordan making this work to point out the strain on the earth and the human distruction is very interesting.. note also that the last name "Jordan" in Swedish means "the Earth"...
