Episode 7 of Extracts with Jeanine Oleson.

In episode 7 of Extracts, hosts Sarah Comyn and Megan Kuster are in conversation with interdisciplinary artist Jeanine Oleson about her work on copper and more recent projects. Jeanine’s art work invites audiences into multi-sensory experiences, often drawing on wry humour and absurdity as a mode of expressing critiques of mastery. In this episode, Jeanine speaks about her interest in labour and workers' rights, how growing up in a port city developed around the fishing and forestry industries in the US state of Oregon influenced her development as an artist, how copper became the protagonist of her 'CONduct/(or conDUCT) Matters' project, and the process of filming at Chino Mine, one of the largest open-pit copper mines in the United States.
