The reality is that nuclear power is stigmatized. I came up against this stigma when I first heard about nuclear power as an environmentally sustainable energy source. As a trans person, I understand what it’s like to be stigmatized for existing. So here I am, holding an atom and dreaming of a future that is not dictated by fear alone but also wonder and curiosity. With nuclear power harnessed to its fullest potential, we can work towards healing our world and preserving life here.

The amount of free energy contained in nuclear fuel is millions of times larger than in a similar mass of chemical fuel. The clean energy of abundance, nuclear power will enable to not only overcome climate change, it will break the remaining chains which still tie man to this planet. From conquering the Earth to conquering the universe - man should not merely endure: he should prevail.

Starred Selection

Sustainable Heart
Inspired by the atomic structure, it depicts nuclear energy extending from the 1st to 3rd generation power plants and the future universe. Like the circuit of the belts in the picture, nuclear power can produce energy that is sustainable and clean enough to see butterflies and stars in a clear sky.

Still Life with Nuclear Terrarium

Still Life with Nuclear Terrarium
An allusion to the Garden of Eden, giving the forbidden fruit of knowledge. Natural cycles of day-night, seasons and astronomical references of elliptical orbits and heavenly bodies are represented by a design based on ellipses, circles and spheres. A space metaphorically represented as a mini universe.

today the earth is so loud

today the earth is so loud
This poem and art piece are about the guilt that braids itself into the horror and anger of impotence when watching the EPA's power systemically reduced, corporations gain power, and profits be placed over human lives while knowing that nuclear energy combined with renewables could change all of that in the short time we need in order to prevent further catastrophic damage to our planet.

Nuclear Fueled Seasons

Nuclear Fueled Seasons
Humankind, along with other Earth's inhabitants, has adapted to different seasons for survival. Like seasons, nuclear energy was created and had weaved itself into everyday life. With its almost zero greenhouse gas emissions and renewable resources, nuclear energy provides humankind with a cleaner, clearer, and greener world throughout all seasons.

Advanced nuclear - Megawatt

Advanced nuclear - Megawatt
This artwork was produced for the Megawatt game, to depict our upgrade card 'Advanced Nuclear'. The idea was to capture how SMRs could fit into the landscape as well as the wider energy system, with some offshore wind farms depicted in the background.

GREEN RADIATION

Climate change has already begun and nature needs to rely on clean energies that provide climate change solutions in order to coexist together. 'Neoclear' was born as a respectful concept, a piece (plant pot) with a clear and concise design that goes beyond its own function and reinforces the message.

NuPolar Life

NuPolar Life
This is a conceptual 4th Generation Micro Modular Reactor underground, with self-protecting, self-power support and unparalleled tolerance to any extreme conditions. It will be a carbon-free power plant and use no water to continuously operate within the hardest climates. In the near future, as the picture depicts, people will be able to use stable and safe nuclear energy to live and work in harmony with nature in the coldest places.

Duality of nuclear indecision

Duality of nuclear indecision
Fear of nuclear energy paralyzes people and policymakers to a point where they cannot see the solution to our climate crisis right in front of their face. “Duality of Nuclear Energy Indecision” depicts our consequences if we collectively refuse to acknowledge the sustainable benefits of nuclear power.

Nuclear Revival. Antarctic research station based on microreactor

Nuclear Revival. Antarctic research station based on microreactor
This project presents the concept of a scientific base with a hydroponic farm, which is supplied with heat and electricity by an atomic microreactor. The facility is located on the coldest and most inaccessible continent - Antarctica. The micro-reactor solves not only the issue of power supply, but also the logistics, as there will be no need to bring in diesel fuel for boiler houses every year. All this will be with zero emissions and practically no maintenance for 20 years (after which time the power module is replaced with a fresh battery).

Honorable Mention

Nuclear Tree of Life

Nuclear Tree of Life
Nuclear power giving birth to the cosmological tree of life (or sacred tree - a universal mythological archetype), is represented as an enormous world tree growing symbolically from a power plant. Enveloped in its procreator’s sunrays, with the vital energy accumulating in every single branch, leaf and cell. Nuclear provides about 10% of the world’s electricity, but it contributes almost 30% of all low carbon electricity, while its tiny footprint leaves room for nature. Nuclear power will be essential to achieving a low carbon future.

The Urgency of Hope

The Urgency of Hope
We are living in the era of climate change where we are actively seeing the effects of the rising temperatures. Storms are becoming more frequent and intense, droughts and flooding more prevalent and devastating, "once in a hundred year" hurricanes seasons becoming normal. It can be easy to sink into the inky blackness of despair. This piece reflects the fear of standing still in a pinocle era, while seeing a glimmer of hope on the horizon that we can make meaningful change in time to aid future generations in restabilizing the planet.

Master of Protons

Master of Protons
Music has tremendous power to influence people and drive change. The “Master of Protons” guitar combines the power of music with the power source that can address climate change. Coal power plants generate 2,180 pounds of carbon dioxide per megawatt-hour, or about 5 tons of carbon dioxide to power a one night stadium concert! The lightning patterns in the “Master of Protons” were made by shooting high energy electrons from a particle accelerator into the acrylic guitar body. When discharged, the electrons burned lightning patterns into the acrylic to create a truly “electric” guitar! The radiation symbol was created by placing a lead mask over part of the acrylic during one of the electron beam exposures. While the lightning pattern is a permanent part of the “Master of Protons,” the guitar was not made radioactive from this process. To keep the music going in a carbon-free energy world, we will need nuclear power plants to continue to provide power for all!

Duality of nuclear indecision
On the Kardashev scale of civilization advancement, we are type 0, the lowest level. Harnessing the power of stars through fission and cold fusion could advance our entire civilization to higher on the scale where energy is no longer a concern. If energy is free, then massive amounts of polluting industrial operations (energy production, its transport, mobility fuels, factories, etc.) simply cease to pollute the air. The newly clarified atmosphere allows perfect view of stars, better solar irradiance, healthier populations and more verdant plant growth. Our forests can regrow, water is cleaner, and an entire circular eco-economy could be brought to fruition. Abundant clean energy production, here represented by the dome building, can release our environment from its polluted state.

Nuclear needs

Nuclear needs
In this work, I wanted to show the importance of nuclear energy, because it helps people in so many areas that many people do not even think about. These are medicine, climate monitoring, saving endangered animals, solutions to improve crop yields, new production technologies, and research in other areas. Nuclear energy is the cleanest form of energy that opens up such great opportunities. I believe that in the future the share of nuclear energy will grow and people will be more conscious and grateful to this area

The building of the Ministry of Nuclear Energy

The building of the Ministry of Nuclear Energy
In this art project, I presented a futuristic style skyscraper, thanks to the use of nuclear energy. The skyscraper is independent, electricity, all systems and functions of the building work thanks to nuclear energy, as evidenced by the logo on the front facade near the entrance. How can we reach heights if we do not master free energy so that it is used in all camps? We must and must come to a point where nuclear energy will put a smile on our faces, and not the fear of some kind of catastrophe.
