Nicolas BADOUT

Prypiat, 26 avril 1986(2022)

How is a landscape made, undone, created or recreated? To try to answer this
question, Nicolas Badout presents here a new series of illustrations, in the continuity of the
16th Biennale of Contemporary Art of Lyon and its theme "Manifesto of fragility".
He thus wished to evoke the Chernobyl nuclear disaster of April 26, 1986, which
made the whole world aware of the risks induced by the manipulation of atomic energy and the
severity of its damage on a regional and planetary scale but also on bodies and minds.
This event takes on a new meaning today with the war in Ukraine, and the strikes
regularly on the Zaporijjia power plant, reminding us of our own fragility.
As main subject, the Palace of Culture “Energetik”, a majestic ruin located in the
center of Pripyat, appears as the silent witness of the disaster and the flight of its
residents.
