Spanish lighting performance collective 'Luzinterrupts', revealed their latest installation piece "Radioactive Control" earlier this month. Created for the Dockville Festival in Hamburg, the piece consists of 100 scarecrow figures dressed in glowing decontamination suits, adorned with nuclear symbols. Each figure is characterized by its blank face and taped up mouth. 

This is what Luzinterruptus had to say about the piece.

"The installation Radioactive Control was created for the Dockville Festival in de Hamburg which tried to demonstrate, in a humorous tone, the paranoia that we are suffering from since the escape of radioactive material in Japan, has brought into question the safety systems at the nuclear power plants.

With our mysterious army of 100 illuminated radioactive figures, which advanced threateningly on the natural environment of the festival, we wanted to invite reflection regarding the use and abuse of nuclear energy, cheap in economic terms, but which can cause grave secondary effects for the environment and health, forever irreversible.

Germany has been the first developed country to announce the total abandonment of nuclear energy by 2022, we know that this was not an altruistic decision and has a lot to do with the creation of new and innovative industries, which will make them pioneers in the market."

Pretty awesome!
