OPERATION DROP, 2002

Operation Drop is an extension of a larger body of
work on the history of the Nevada nuclear bomb test
sites. As part of my research over the past few years
into the subject I have watched previously classified
military films titled after the code names for the
operations. As such, my photographs mirror these military
operations in a civilian setting, and simultaneously
parody the romanticization of war within Hollywood
cinema.
