We are melting it

Today in my design class our final pieces for our current project was due. As I stated in my previous post, we had to design around the word "Justice".

I began thinking of different things associated with justice and decided to go on the environmental justice route. I had to narrow my thoughts down and focused on air pollution. This made me think of United States and how much CO2 it emits into the air. Then I did a bit of research and found that China produces the world's most CO2 emission at 22% while United States came in second with 20%.



I focused on the shape of the world while incorporating the shape of a factory/ smoke stack at the top polluting the air with smoke. To make things more interesting, I made China and US the biggest and in red to draw attention to that they are the leaders in air pollution. To finish off the touch I added the drips as if the earth is melting due to pollution and global warming. There are also grid lines like longitude and latitude but you can't see it from here.

I hope you guys could understand the context without be explaining things to you.

Now I'm off to my painting class.
