"1 Million - Multiple Species Eradication"

The 1 Million - Multiple Species Eradication explores bio/multi species extinctions and explores species affected by humanity’s mass resource extraction. Artist Carol Rashawnna Williams created the large scale monoprint installation with seven contributing local/national visual artists: Amaranta Ibarra-Sandys, Paula Oliver, Noa Piper, Sydney Pertl, Kelly and Hope Bain, and Rosalind Davis Guterson. “We are NO longer talking about animal extinction but entire species eradication, in which the tipping point of resource extraction symptoms, causes and old-world paradigms will either make or break human civilization.” - Carol Rashawnna Williams While working in relative physical isolation for two years, the seven artists have worked to be in constant contact, learning, growing and exploring these topics together through their various artforms. The shared experiences, fears, hopes, dreams, visions and commitments to mother earth of the collective galvanized them to create this work. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the killings of African Americans by Police and BIPOC housing displacement and insecurities also shaped the exhibition and artists work. The collective also uncovered new research and awareness of resource extraction, climate change, and sustainable infrastructures. The 1 Million – Multiple Species Eradication seeks to connect our beliefs, ancestral knowledge and the impact humans have on mass extinctions.
