Welcome to the
What do you need to know?
Working with fact, fiction, perception and official public information, The Nuclear Information Centre (NIC) is a deliberately quasi-official sounding organisation and nomadic visitor centre, established in 2022 by artist Nic Pehkonen. At a time when talk of a so-called new nuclear golden age is running in parallel with the challenge of managing our existing atomic legacies and escalating geo-political tensions within the nuclear realm, the aim of the NIC is to cast a critical and curious eye over selective aspects of the UK’s past, present and future atomic activities within the wider context of our cumulative, global nuclear footprint. What else do you need to know?
Although the NIC is primarily a vehicle through which to share personal research and creative output it is also very much open to potential collaborative working so if this is something you feel you might like to explore, please contact Nic in the first instance through Nuclear Information Centre enquiries.
You may also observe NIC activities on Instagram, Vimeo and Soundcloud.
