There was no design statement that I could view, but I would guess that the image is ethnographic in "studying up" re corporate discourses of disaster/toxicant remediation. The assumption is that only liquid mercury is hazardous and that changing the form will remediate/buffer the toxicity; but the remediation is mostly discursive (i.e., b/c there's less awareness of cinnabar's toxicity in the present moment).
