Opening with the statement "The anthropocene is no time to set
things straight," Stacy Alaimo puts forth potent arguments for a
material feminist posthumanism in the chapters that follow. From
trans-species art and queer animals to naked protesting and
scientific accounts of fishy humans, Exposed argues for feminist
posthumanism immersed in strange agencies and scale-shifting
ethics. Including such divergent topics as landscape art, ocean
ecologies, and plastic activism, Alaimo explores our environmental
predicaments to better understand feminist occupations of
transcorporeal subjectivity. She puts scientists, activists,
artists, writers, and theorists in conversation, revealing that the
state of the planet in the twenty-first century has radically
transformed ethics, politics, and what it means to be human.
Ultimately, Exposed calls for an environmental stance in which,
rather than operating from an externalized perspective, we think,
feel, and act as the very stuff of the world.
