Nucifera Metamorphosis is an evocative hauntingly beautiful series of 37 unique photograpic pieces. The artworks are created through a double exposure process, where color-negatives of coconuts are exposed to radioactive samples from the Bikini Atoll. The resulting white haze on the photographs serves as a powerful visual representation of the lingering effects of nuclear testing. The coconuts, as heavy accumulators of toxins, act as symbols of the radioactive contamination that will persist for millions of years, eventually making its way into the food chain and into human bodies. The multi-exposure process used in creating these pieces leaves eerie white traces on the images, making the invisible visible and adding an otherworldly quality to the artwork. The series serves as a striking reminder of the long-term consequences of our actions and the impact they have on the world around us.
