Growing consensus among scientists suggests that we live in a new geological epoch characterized by humankind’s impact on Earth: the Anthropocene. This impact is evidenced in part by remainders 
of fossil fuel production and consumption, petrochemical use, industrial agriculture and mining. Extracted brings together a group of artists whose work investigates the extraction of natural 
resources, and the material and cultural circulation of such resources around the globe. Participating artists include Mary Mattingly, Otobong Nkanga, Claire Pentecost, David Zink Yi and Marina Zurkow. 
Extracted is curated by USFCAM Associate Curator Megan Voeller and organized by USFCAM.
