Nuclear Topographies, a group exhibition with photographs from Blake Fitzpatrick, Avery Nielsen-Webb, and Logan Rayment explores the ever-lasting radioactive histories of nuclear industrialism within North America. Within the genre of the landscape, the photographers document uranium mines, laboratories, and refineries, where hundreds of millions of tons of radioactive mine tailings, waste, and spills have been scattered across the land. Their work examines existing nuclear plants and the historical evidence of uranium mining and refining across three sites to interpret the devastating effects on personal health and on the environment.
