This is a mixture of oil and water on a driveway.
Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: This picture emphasis the exponential increase in ecological distress in our society. In this picture, the oil is not able to be dissolved in the water, and instead floats delicately on top, reflecting the nature around it. The beauty, however, is deceitful. When big companies dump oil in fresh bodies of water, they destroy habitats both below and above the crisis area. Oil destroys many fur-bearing animal's insulation and the lifespans of marine animals, and therefore has detrimental effects. The irony of this picture, and the events that it attempts to capture, is that the oil is reflective of the tranquil nature around it. A substance so harmful can appear so beautiful. This photograph should prove to be more than just oil on water; it should be a reflection of the beauty that surrounds us, of ourselves, and of what our society has become. |
