Second Life Chernobyl Photographic Exhibition 'No Man's Land'

Second Life Chernobyl Photographic Exhibition

Take a virtual journey to Chernobyl's 'No Man's Land' a photographic exhibition documenting the aftermath of the 1986 disaster.

A 2D & 3D Photographic exhibition of the Nuclear Wasteland of Chernobyl and the surrounding district. This was a powerful exhibition. Take time to absorb the images and read the story.

This was a very moving exhibition to experience virtually . What an adventure this young man and his friends had photographing the remnants of such a significant historic catastrophic disaster in our history's time. Not only documenting this but risking their own health as well. People visit this place to this day photographing and some even moving back to the outer skirts of the accident.

I was told by this young mans father that when you go there you can't drink the water of course but they do eat the fish in restaurants nearby. When you order fish at a restaurants near there, they wave Geiger counter across the fish to read how radioactive it is. When they do this It does show it has levels of radio active properties and they still eat it..

As I landed on this sim where the exhibition was I was greeted by Aino Baar who is in real life an International Curator & Representative of a Museum in real life also an Art Writer and founder of the Second life group OPEN this END.

The images this young man took featured in this film have to be seen. I remember this happening back then in 1986 and it scared the heck out me to tell you the truth. We were not told of the severity right away which was just as frightening.

Mathoni Zuhrah is a second life resident who's real life son was the photographer featured here. In Second Life. His friends call him the Gentleman Gypsy Poet. Ingeborg Apfelbaum shown here as well is a Poet& one of the founders of POETS OF ZARAHEMLA

The link below takes you to a  video of how catastrophic this disaster was and how it could have even gotten worse for the world.
The whole world was in danger and they / we didn't even know it. These people who go there to this day are still taking risks with their own health. It's like a field trip to some. Do a search on the subject and you will see how many people are traveling to see it to this day.
