Artist elin o’Hara slavick will discuss her work in the exhibition, darkroom manipulated photographs of Persimmon trees in Fukushima heavy with contaminated fruit. These images are from the ongoing project After Hiroshima, Nagasaki and Fukushima, in which slavick attempts to make visible the links between nuclear power and weapons, the deadly power and subsequent loss as a result of radioactivity, war and the aftermath, death and survival, trees as witness, and much more. Working on site and in archives, in darkrooms and museums, collaborating with institutions and survivors, slavick uses photographic processes to illuminate things we do not wish to see.
