An environmental threat of key concern is that of soil contamination in western Atlanta. Lead contamination in soil can negatively impact the quality of food grown, outdoor activity, and childhood development. My painting depicts a young boy in the foreground with Atlanta skyline characteristics in the background. A plant sprouting from the young boy’s head blurs the binary between the human and nonhuman showing how interconnected we truly are whilst referring back to the notion that lead contamination negatively impacts the food grown in an area. The plant is slowly dying as a reflection of the poor soil quality; the soil that is meant to nourish the plant is failing and as a result failing to nourish the children of Atlanta. Plumes of smoke linger in the middle ground as a shout out to the work done at SAIKAWA lab surrounding air quality alongside highlighting the fact that environmental racism and neglect is rarely ever contained to one facet of the environment. The poster-esque nature of my acrylic painting is oriented to resemble other forms of advocacy artwork. Specifically, American propaganda posters often focus on portraits of faces. This subtle reflection of aforementioned patriotic posters begs viewers to ask the question: why is there not more being done to protect marginalized groups from environmental harm within the United States?
