Value Extraction ‘24
Eva St. John's installation piece is a profound exploration of humanity's complex relationship with the environment, rooted in Ecofeminist theory and gendered landscapes. Through her multidisciplinary practice which encompasses film and sculptural installations, St. John confronts the environmental and social impacts of emotional and spiritual disconnection from the land.
Her recent works aim to expose the exploitative nature of capitalist societies' extractive and colonial relationships with land, highlighting the profound damage inflicted on both landscapes and the human psyche. St. John's art serves as a catalyst for reevaluating societal attitudes towards land and fostering a deeper connection with nature and each other.
This installation invites viewers to reflect on the urgent need for ecological and cultural transformation, emphasising the importance of harmonious coexistence between humans and the natural world. St. John's work challenges us to reconsider our relationship with land and envision more sustainable futures.
