Artist Statement: After learning about Los Alamos National Labs and the pollution effects that their careless lack of responsibility and regulation has created, we wanted to represent some of these results through art. With Bess McAlpin’s collage, Revely Rothschild’s print, and Emma Tsosie’s photograph, we aimed to show our own interpretations of what these effects actually look like or could look like.
