Statistics in Art

Statistics can often be mundane and it's often a challenge to make teaching them interesting and exciting.

"Each image portrays a specific quantity of something: fifteen million sheets of office paper (five minutes of paper use); 106,000 aluminum cans (thirty seconds of can consumption) and so on."

Chris Jordan is the artist.
