Aesthetics of Extraction

Thu, Feb 7, 2019    6pm

This edition of Works in Progress brings together artists and researchers who deal with the visual cultures of extraction, writ large: from material harvesting to data extraction industries, from regimes of spatial imaging technologies to instruments of financial exaction… How does film, art practice, and architectural visualization critically ruminate upon, cross-examine, or contest the logics of removal? Aesthetics of Extraction hopes to offer new ways of “looking” at environmental, sociopolitical, and economic sites of extraction, the abstractions and realities they co-produce, and render visible latent or actual pressures, paradoxes and fissures imbricated in such fabrics.
