STRANGEPLACE let there be light

Nuclear Test Photographs

The exhibition "Let There Be Light" featured a curated collection of photographs based on rare, original vintage images of nuclear tests. Captured between the 1940s and early 1970s, these historically significant works were meticulously restored, digitized, and reinterpreted by Voigt. By presenting these rarely seen and partly unpublished images together, the exhibition explored the scientific, political, and cultural legacy of the atomic age.

Uraniumerz Dünnschnitte

The original Polaroids were photographed in the late 1950s by the Metallographic Laboratory of the Canadian Eldorado Uranium Mine. They document thin sections of various uranium alloys under different conditions and at varying microscopic magnifications. The uranium ore from the Eldorado Mine was used for the Trinity test and the Hiroshima atomic bomb.
