Cornelia Hesse-Honegger (CH)
02.09.-07.09.
Since 1968, scientist-artist Cornelia Hesse-Honegger has been painting pictures of flies and other bugs that have mutated as a result of environmental contamination and atomic radiation. Since the Chernobyl meltdown in 1986, she has collected more than 16,000 insects in the fallout zones of Chernobyl and nuclear facilities in Europe and the US. Her studies show that these plants severely harm the environment. The highest rate of contamination is 22% in the area of La Hague, France; the expected value should be approximately 1%.
It’s forbidden to take pictures inside the exhibition.
