Descrizione

There are thousands of brick-fields in Bangladesh, usually situated outside towns and cities in the low-lying lands. Nearly half of the total number of brick-fields are considered illegal, threatening the ecology and human health. Workers carry bricks in a brick field on the outskirts of Dhaka. About 32 workers are employed at the brick factory and most work 12 hours a day. Working children are a common sight at brickworks as they regularly employ entire families - who often make their homes on site. Toiling under the baking hot tropical sun, these workers are carrying out back-breaking and exhausting labour in the most perilous conditions. Brick-making provides a better income than agriculture or other jobs available in rural Bangladesh, but it is dangerous and often devastating to workers' health. Accidents are common and workers have no protective gear, save for what they are able to cobble together themselves. The fields are also a major source of pollution in a country where environmental safeguards are all but nonexistent. Dust from the brick-making sites spreads on the wind to nearby towns and villages, clogging the lungs of young and old and generating health problems the country is ill-equipped to handle. Almost all Brick fields are violating rules by using wood instead of coal. Hence our nature become vulnerable due to extensive use of wood . Also most of the brick kilns have no safeguard to save the environment which results a huge amount of dust covering nearby cities. This Industrial waste are destroying nearby agricultural fields as well as human life. The workers in the brick fields are, low paid migrated laborers mostly suffering from airborne diseases, in dangerous situation for this risky job also. Therefore, I did think a lot before selecting the type, the tone of my works-which styles better represents the life of brick workers. Monochrome effect is selected as the only color in their life is the desire to survive.
