Who By Fire

Past Project

On June 5, 2010, thousands of people across the world took part in coordinated local events to mark Nuclear Abolition Day. Our message was simple: it’s time for governments to begin negotiating a Nuclear Weapons Convention to ban all nuclear weapons.

ICAN partners around Australia participated in events in Melbourne, Fremantle, Brisbane and Launceston. ICAN in Melbourne held a performance titled Who By Fire and produced a film for the occasion. It is a retelling of the legend of Prometheus set against an iconic Melbourne landmark, Harold Freedman's Legend of Fire mural.
