Hiroshima Drawing

On August 6th, 1945, the US dropped the atomic bomb dubbed "Little Boy" on the Japanese city of Hiroshima killing between 90,000 and 146,000 Japanese, mostly civilians. Within hours the city was engulfed in a widespread fire storm causing further damage and loss of life. This drawing depicts the cloud of smoke from that storm. The small physical scale of these drawings is meant to bring attention to the grand scale of these events, both physically and in their lasting impressions on our national psychology. There are a few defining moments in each generation’s collective memory that we all remember, the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the assassination of President Kennedy, 9/11. These drawings explore that national collective experience in small meditative vignettes.
