    here’s the higher resolution version of the art by Elijah Johnson, would you consider this a depiction of labour?

      I would consider this a depiction of people going berry picking. Again, I have to ask, have you ever set a foot on a farm in your life?

        you never asked if i have set foot on a farm in my life before but no i have not

        so you do not consider harvesting produce to be labour?

          I don’t consider what that picture depicts to be anything resembling labour. It’s just people strolling on a nature walk picking berries or whatever they’re doing there.

            that is not a question?

            anyway the image depicts farmers according to its blurb "the crops and farmers work together behind a solar-walled city.”, it is a flawed depiction yes but that is why they are all in the same uniform and have backpack sized baskets to gather the fruit they are walking toward in the art
