Item Description
Lux: Metropolis 35° 10'N 136° 50'E (Nagoya), 2005-2008. Digital C-Print, 14 x 11 inches on 14 x 11 inch paper, Edition of 50. Christina Seely's series Lux, titled after the system for measuring illumination, examines the disconnect between the immense beauty created by human-made light emanating from the earth's surface and the carbon emissions created by the world's wealthiest countries--evident as the brightest areas detected on a satellite map. The three regions most visible in NASA images are the United States, Western Europe, and Japan, which together emit approximately 45 percent of the world's CO2 and, along with China, are the top consumers of electricity and other resources.
