Event overview
Join us to discover the work of artist and PhD researcher Bridget Kennedy. All welcome!
Nuclear Fabulation
Bridget Kennedy is currently engaged in an act of Nuclear Fabulation, a process that invites novel relationships with nuclear materiality and temporality. By reimagining the connections between things and people that are linked through the nuclear landscape of Sellafield, West Cumbria, Nuclear Fabulation opens up a space in which perceptions of vitrified nuclear waste can shift. By encouraging a form of intimacy with this complex material, which contains radionuclides that require millions of years to reach a stable state, Nuclear Fabulation seeks to facilitate a form of kinship with this more-than-human matter.
Using the archive as a portal for time travel, Nuclear Fabulation combines accounts of items from the atomic holdings of the Science Museum, London and Cumbria County Council archives, with creative writing, fieldnotes, photographic documentation, together with found and made objects. This mash up of information, emerging out of and between these fragments, offers up way markers with which to navigate deep time journeys.
