Tim Schütz: The Toxic Garment Factory: Environmental and Social Impacts of The Rana Plaza building collapse in Dhaka, Bangladesh

The collage of photo and cartoon brought to my attention the question of labeling parts on an image. In the right-hand cartoon, parts of the city are clearly labeled, e.g. the school. In the left-hand photograph, viewers are left with figuring out details of the image. Even though the cartoon is exaggerated, the collage produces an interesting comparison. One is called to imagine the social structures covered in the debris of the collapsed Rana Plaza Building. The cartoon, at the same time, is confronted with photographic realism and brutality that is otherwise downplayed given the playful and colorful illustration.
