A series of custom-made jigsaws depicting nuclear test clouds. The KT (kiloton) scale of each test is approximated by the number of pieces in the puzzle. The impossibility of appreciating the 'scale' of such explosions without direct experience, is explored by substituting quantities of energy for quantities of time and puzzle-pieces.

The work emerged after a visit to Kelvedon Hatch (decommissioned Nuclear Bunker) and the purchase of a 12-piece souvenir jigsaw showing the 61KT explosion from test 'Badger' (Operation Upshot-Knothole, Nevada Test Site, 1953).
