Het werk focust op de reis van de Global Mariner, een schip dat tussen 1998 en 2000 de wereld afvoer, met aan boord een tentoonstelling die de arbeidsomstandigheden in de scheepsindustrie aan de kaak stelde. Sekula documenteerde deze reis door middel van die haarfijn de effecten van de globalisering registreren. Met deze werken weerlegt de kunstenaar de neoliberale mythe dat goederen en kapitaal pijnloos en probleemloos doorstromen in de wereldhandel.
