Civil Cold Warriors
20"w x 40"h | oil on canvas | going to fundraiser | auction > TBA limited editions available in august 2021 The invisible nature of ionizing radiation (iR) disguises the real impacts to those exposed anywhere along the fuel-chains, testing, waste and/or accidents. The ongoing generational impacts and need for resources and acknowledgment of the unintended consequences to global frontline families and communities. Lady Justice stands atop "Fat Man", one of the two bomb designs used in 1945 against Japan to end the war. |
Unintended Consequences
24"w x 36"h // oil on canvas limited editions available From blowing holes in the atmosphere, to knowingly irradiating countless service personnel, then denying and abandoning their medical needs. Destroying the lives and lands of indigenous peoples, then leaving millions of tons of radioactive test debris in their wake.
The Enewetak Atoll Cleanup Veterans and the people of the Republic of the Marshall Islands know all too well, there is no "cleaning this up." That 'leaking dome in the pacific' is a 27,000 year problem, that is simply getting demonstrably worse in the 30 short years ago it was created too 'contain' it. Imagery Includes: Pacific Proving Grounds Operation Ivy-Mike Test Blast LaCross Test Lagoon Crater Runit Dome (Cactus Test Blast Crater) Lady Justice Lady Justice stands atop Runit Dome |
The Real "Back-up" Fat Man was recently donated to the museum by Sandia
Unbeknownst to all of this during the planning stages, and with wild synchronicity, and Atomic Veteran's and descendants ts on hand, during the ceremony, it was announced that Pres. Biden had designated that very day, July 16, to be National Atomic Veterans Day.

Victoria Moore Fine Art, on behalf of Childrenofatomicveterans.Org and StillGlowing.Org,
is honored the Smithsonian National Atomic Testing Museum in Las Vegas, Nevada is accepting the initial artist's proofs on Atomic Veteran's Day, July 16th, 2021. We hope you can join us 12:30pm - 2:00pm (presentation @ 1:00pm). https://nationalatomictestingmuseum.org
"Civil Cold Warriors" (20”w x 40”h/AP1) is one of two Director Michael Hall will be accepting. Atomic Veteran’s Day is celebrated on the76th anniversary of the Trinity Test Blast. Created to honor and recognize the Veterans of the initial land-based testing, the civilian frontline communities and downwinders so deeply impacted who feel moved generations later to become civil cold warriors in trying to manage the consequences now and for generations to come.
“Unintended Consequences” (24”w x 36”h/AP1) will also be joining the permanent collection from Victoria’s Atomic Babylon collection. The second in the series, it is to honor and recognize those who have served in the Pacific Proving Grounds (PPG). The civilian frontline indigenous communities so tragically impacted, and to those who went in decades later, tasked to build Runit Dome from radioactive debris left from the 66 atomic and thermonuclear tests conducted in the PPG. Known as the Enewetak Cleanup Veterans.
“Historically art has been one of societies inherited tools to reflect upon itself and their progress. The Atomic Babylon Collection of paintings are one way for me to leave lasting impressions and spark conversations for future generations.” “Putting my art into action, the original paintings will be auctioned at a later date as a way to bring awareness to the Atomic Veterans and their families globally with a portion to benefit the genetic transgenerational research Projects associated with ionizing radiation exposure. We are excited with expanding options in traditional and emerging markets.” Dates and details will follow at StillGlowing.org
Victoria’s story may be unique, but she is just ONE of many. Her atomic family has given her such support since she became aware she could talk about it in 2007. Victoria is a living lab rat. “It really was an isolated family of us, clustered in silence for over four decades.” Her goal with the Atomic Babylon collection is to raise awareness, funds and an ongoing mechanism to support relevant trans-generational research projects.
Kathy Sinai and I are dedicated to raising awareness for our communities and seeking self-care solutions globally if we leverage the scientific advances and fund-raising opportunities in the private sector.
StillGlowing.org, as a legacy project, recognizes that nuclear weapons, energy, including their fuel chain and waste sectors, carry inherent risk factors for ionizing radiation exposure to occur. Many families are experiencing the transgenerational fall-out now. Raising awareness that modern genetic research and testing has solutions can help us help ourselves. Contributions are tax deductible to the limit the law allows for our 2021 PROJECTS listed at StillGlowing.Org
