Chris Jordan Photography

American, b. 1963
For two decades Chris Jordan’s internationally known photographs and conceptual artworks have probed into the dark underbelly of our culture of mass consumption. Exploring the complexities of our many forms of waste, these series have been exhibited and published worldwide, most recently with a retrospective solo exhibit at the Sungkok Art Museum in Seoul. Chris has published four books and is past winner of the Sierra Club’s Ansel Adams Prize for Conservation Photography, the Prix Pictet Commission Prize in Paris, and the GreenLeaf Award given by the Nobel Peace Center in Oslo. His paradigm-breaking film Albatross has reached a global audience with its compelling love story about birds on a remote island in the Pacific whose bodies are filled with plastic. Chris currently lives in a small town at the extreme southern tip of South America, and in this space of relative isolation, his eye has turned in a new direction: toward the contemplation of beauty as a response to the mental chaos of our times. Training his camera for hours at a time on the ever-changing surfaces of Patagonia’s lakes and ocean shorelines, Chris uses cutting-edge techniques borrowed from astrophotography to create astonishingly complex and subtle photographs that slow down time and touch the inner experience of stillness. This series, titled "Ecstatic Desolation," is offered as ultra-high-resolution prints here for the first time. Chris enjoys connecting with collectors and those interested in his work, so please don't hesitate to drop a line with any questions or thoughts.
