Critical Zones. In Search of a Common Ground.
Toxicity that emerge from Industrial landscapes surrounds all systems, living and non-living, on earth. This work presents toxicity (adj.) as a Hyperobject having an agency of its own. A hyperobject is a concept introduced by philosopher Timothy Morton to describe phenomena that are massive in scale and distributed in time and space, making them difficult to comprehend and experience directly. The work unfolds the relationships of toxicity and industrial infrastructures, while thinking across different scales and perspectives that form the idea of a hyperobject.
