The Nuclear Truth Project is an international initiative connecting Indigenous and First Nations Peoples, affected community members, international and civil society organizations, experts and governments working for nuclear abolition.
 
Our founding work is centred on developing protocols for working with impacted Peoples and communities; education through new research, maps and archives; and building networks between affected Peoples and allied communities and governments.

DNA Repair.  2017.  16 x 20 in. Acrylic on Watercolor Paper.  Mallery Quetawki (Zuni Pueblo).  artist site | instagram

​DNA has the ability to repair itself through complex mechanisms and pathways when damage occurs.  Its intricacy of repair can be compared to the creation of beaded items in Native Culture.  Designs are thought out ahead and require skill and patience to be able to bead such intricate pieces.  When a beaded necklace comes undone, the stones/beads are restrung by using what is already there.  The design used is from the Crow Nation.  The use of the flower design symbolizes the idea of regrowth. 

We would like to acknowledge the support of Ms. Quetawki’s images by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center, the University of New Mexico NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center and the University of New Mexico College of Pharmacy.
