Magnum Photosのインスタグラム(magnumphotos) - 7月22日 19時00分

Magnum nominee @chiyin_sim's new exhibition, 'Most people were silent', has opened at @icasingapore this week.
.
The exhibition is composed of photographs taken in the vicinity of nuclear sites in North Korea and the USA. Collectively titled 'Fallout', the series was commissioned in 2017 by Oslo’s Nobel Peace Center for the Nobel Peace Prize exhibition (December 12, 2017 to November 25, 2018).
.
'Most people were silent' exposes the seemingly dormant threat of the nuclear, between and beyond the genres of documentary and landscape photography. Sim’s camera reveals the visible and invisible borders of nuclear warheads, captures objects that have been exposed to nuclear radiation, and allows unusual access to classified spaces. Although people are rarely visible in these photographs, the photographer’s presence and her risky journeying are revealed in the composition of each image.
.
In the exhibition space, Sim’s striking photographs will be presented on the glass façade and suspended on screens. Videos and photographic images visualize the similarities between the North American and North Korean landscapes; snowy mountaintops, fences and desolate control rooms evoke an eerie sense of displacement in part because of their geographic ambiguity.

The Titan II was the largest and heaviest missile ever built by the United States. The missile was 31.3 m long and 3.05 m wide. It weighed 149,700 kg when fully fueled and had a range of 15,000 km. This is the last of 54 such missiles that were clustered in Arizona, Arkansas and Kansas during the Cold War; the rest have been destroyed. Arizona, USA. November, 2017. .
