BARRELS BEYOND BOUNDARIES
2024
Mixed media painting
36 x 48 in.
"Barrels Beyond Boundaries" explores the environmental and human cost of nuclear waste. The collage features a stack of nuclear waste barrels, symbolizing the looming threat of radiological hazards.
The background, seen through the barrels, depicts individuals in protective gear, a faceless man in a suit, and bound feet, highlighting the dehumanizing reality of nuclear pollution. This piece is a stark warning about past and potential future environmental catastrophes.
I aim to evoke concern and awareness, urging viewers to consider the consequences of industrial actions and advocate for safer handling of hazardous materials. This artwork calls for vigilance, transparency, and accountability to prevent further tragedies.
