In response to:

How is this image “ethnographic”? Would you add anything to this image’s “design statement”?

This image is a visual collection of the ways that artists have "art-washed" toxic spaces. It serves an ethnographic purpose in representing the motivations and outcomes of artists' desires to reappropriate toxicity. I felt that the image of the freeway headdress and the drain cats were particularly effective in this regards. It was more difficult for me to make the same connection to the argument for the other images.
