Atomic Spring Painting

Having followed the news on the nuclear disaster at Fukushima in 2011 and having read many subsequent reports on the tons of radioactive matter regularly leaking into and contaminating the ocean, I wanted to portray the contradiction between the perception of the very orderly, traditional, calm and spiritual aspects of a Zen garden with the aggressive, uncontrolled destruction of the the marine environment. Atomic cherry blossom, nuclear heating rods and contaminated water are contrasted by nemophilia, ‘baby blue eyes’ flowers and the smooth white stones symbolising purity.
