Nic Pehkonen
BIO
Nic Pehkonen (b. 1969) is a multi-disciplinary artist and part-time nuclear professional based in Gloucestershire, UK. His research-based practice is heavily focussed on examining the UK’s present day atomic activities, engaging with intertwined subjects of power, weapons and waste within the wider context of our cumulative, global nuclear footprint.
He also works under the alias of the Nuclear Information Centre (NIC), a quasi-official sounding organisation and nomadic visitor centre where official and unofficial informational boundaries are frequently blurred, nuclear fact and fiction become actively entangled, and questions of selectivity and trust are tacitly raised.
Although largely self-taught, Nic holds an MA in Fine Art from the University of Gloucestershire.
“The Nuclear Information Centre is a space where official and unofficial informational boundaries are intentionally blurred and questions of ambiguity, selectivity and trust are tacitly raised.”
