TurnbullJonathon VtP Annotation: What does this visualization (including caption) say about toxics?

There are links to my own work here on radioactivity that are interesting. I think the image highlights the importance of visualising toxic places in general due to their (often) invisibility. Here, the vast infrastructure to manage the toxicity in the landscape is only a ghostly reminder of the unseen toxicity that lies beneath it. This could be emphasised alongside mention of the way the waste beneath might have a 'semblance of life'. The absence of humans/life in the picture also suggests toxics are incompatible with life itself. It raises the questions of who lives alongside them (because they have no choice) and how?
