Picasso’s piece is not as easily relative as Jordan’s. It’s an old-fashioned way of perceiving women as fragile beings, especially since we are living in an era where women are united and empowered. However, “Albatross” makes us reflect about the ongoing issue that we all contribute to in a negative way by our actions and way of living. Therefore, according to us, Chris Jordan’s “Albatross” is the most powerful and meaningful piece.  

In the close-up picture of Chris Jordan, it presents a dead bird which has a lot of rubbish inside its organs that cause by humans. The photograph was shot on a peaceful island where is far away from mainland 2,000 miles.

Picasso waved his brush by a warm tone oil and showed it on a canvas while Chris Jordan presents his work by shooting a cool tone picture on a photo paper.

Chris Jordan’s work makes people reflect and realise about environment pollution which make by inconsiderate people. His photo is easily perceive for every generation. However, Picasso’s art also effect to emotional of viewers but the use of abstract art can make it difficult for some people who don’t know this type of art. 

The Weeping Woman was painted by Picasso in 1937 which is oil on canvas. It shows extreme sadness using vibrant and outstanding colors with cube shape. On the other hand, the albatross is a realistic picture taken by Chris Jordan who is political photographer based on Seattle. His art is mainly about confront issues such as mass consumption and unconscious behaviors. 

 The Weeping Women gives emotional stress to audiences using cube shape, vivid color, strong and sharp lines. In contrast, the Albatross is absolutely different from the Weeping Women.  The Weeping Woman painted by Picasso focused on abstract whereas Chris Jordan would like to describe about political issues, global pollution and animal population. He used the waste product from human consumption to put in a new story by taking a picture. The Albatross photograph can increasing people awareness to the environment. 

Compared these, the Weeping Woman could be more “artistic” as for fun unlike the albatross which shows shock and horror of the social reality. ..Although, these two works focus on completely different topics, both give us a great impact in terms of composition and extraordinary situation.
