The Works of Mitch Epstein

This photo shows a small house with a power plant close to the home.  It shows how power plants are dangerously close to residential areas and could potentially harm the surroundings.
This photo shows a football team practicing on a field that is in close proximity to a power plant.  It shows the harmful toxins being released into the air could potentially be inhaled by the inhabitants that are close to the power plant.



Both photos portray a gruesome reality that we are not realizing the fact that our use of power plants is harmful to not only the environment but ourselves as well.  The photos make us stop and think about alternative ways to create new environmentally-friendly power sources.

  1. These images also make me reflect on our expectations of the communities we live in. Interesting choice.
