"My Nuclear World" is a series of paintings or should I say visual musings that originally commented on the Chernobyl and Three Mile Island nuclear disasters. Unfortunately, the series is still relevant with the recent, still unresolved Fukushima disaster and brewing, unanswered questions pertaining to commitments to the international Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty .
Incorporating similar techniques as those used in political cartoons, "My Nuclear World" challenges the viewers' attitudes, insights and perceptions. What kind of genie have we let out of the bottle?
