Chris is best known for his large-scale works depicting mass consumption and waste, particularly garbage. Chris’ recent work has focused on Midway Atoll, a remote cluster of islands more than 2,000 miles from the nearest continent, where the detritus of our mass consumption surfaces in an astonishing place: inside the stomachs of thousands of dead baby albatrosses.
