This found image is of a part of a methanol chemical plant being transported on a rail car. The image is compelling, as the proportions of the cargo and the infrastructure supporting it do not seem to match. The image almost conveys a sense that the bridge might collapse at any moment, and definitely an affect of unease.

This si a found image. I really like how the image was originally supplied by an industry actor themselves and how it has been repurposed multiple times to critique rather than sell, which it seemed intended to do.
