aesthetics-chernobyl

This is the ethnographer's image and shows a puppy peeping out of a door. It works on an affective level and draws readers in emotionally and makes them think about why there is a puppy poking its head in this manner at a place which is out of the frame. When read along with the caption it makes us think about the contrast between toxics in Chernobyl and the proliferation of life and connections between humans and nonhumans in a place like this.
