Sculpture: Nuclear Bomb


"Nuclear Bomb" by Israeli artist Eyal Gever

Eyal Gever explores catastrophic events through sculpture.  In this pair of sculptures, simply known  as "Nuclear Bomb" and "Large Scale Smoke," he depicts the fiery mushroom cloud of an atomic explosion and the suffocating carbon and debris that billows up from a volcanic eruption.  Gever explains his fascination with disaster, saying “My work captures and freezes catastrophic situations as cathartic experiences.”
