探討毒性議題的歷史展覽
Centre de Design de l'UQAM 呈獻重要展覽
魁北克大學蒙特利爾分校設計中心(Centre de design de l'UQAM),呈獻由歷史學家兼策展人 Samia Henni 策劃的展覽「Toxicité coloniale : Architecture et paysage radioactifs français dans le Sahara」,記錄法國殖民政權於 1960 年至 1966 年間,於阿爾及利亞撒哈拉沙漠引爆四枚大氣層核彈及 13 枚地下核彈的歷史,以及這場核試對整個非洲及地中海地區人類軀體、自然環境及建築物所造成的持久污染。
此展覽運用一個沉浸式多媒體裝置,由 13 個視聽站組成,以懸掛於活頁夾環上的輕盈紙質隔板加以佈置。展品包括政府文件、軍事記錄、受害者手寫證詞、放大的檔案圖像、影片片段,以及一段模擬沙漠風聲的環境音效,部分頁面刻意留白,以標示出仍屬機密、尚未解封檔案的缺失。
此展覽亦擔當一次行動呼籲——要求解密機密檔案,並要求就撒哈拉居民至今仍居住的受污染地區,展開去污染工作。

英文原文
The Centre de design de l'UQAM is presenting the exhibition 'Toxicité coloniale : Architecture et paysage radioactifs français dans le Sahara' by historian and curator Samia Henni, which documents the French colonial regime's detonation of four atmospheric and 13 underground nuclear bombs in the Algerian Sahara between 1960 and 1966, along with the lasting contamination of living bodies, natural environments, and built structures across Africa and the Mediterranean.
The exhibition uses an immersive multimedia installation consisting of 13 audiovisual stations organized by lightweight paper partitions suspended from binder rings. The display features government documents, military records, handwritten victim testimonies, enlarged archival images, video footage, and an ambient audio track of desert wind, with some pages intentionally left blank to indicate the absence of still-classified archives.
The exhibition also functions as a call to action, demanding the declassification of secret archives and the decontamination of territories where Saharan populations still live.
