Running The Numbers

Will Brady was one of the very first bloggers to link to me and include me in his blogroll. I'm still there, although that may be because he hasn't got around to updating it! He's a really interesting guy who's been blogging for years and comes up with some great stuff. I feel guilty for not having linked to him for ages. So,  to put that straight...:)

will brady's ruminations:
Chris Jordan's Running the Numbers makes use of everyday objects in gigantic assemblages. Reduced down to coffee-table book size, they appear as curious abstracts, but they are not. The materials used to produce his images are also inextricably connected to the final image.

Shown to the left Skull with cigarette, is composed not of daubs of paint, but the tops of cigarette packages, chosen for the colors needed for those "daubs".
