Petcoke: Tracing Dirty Energy features new works by eight artists/collaborative teams made in reaction to the environmental and public health impact of petcoke, a dust-like waste product containing carbon and other dangerous compounds resulting from oil refining processes in the Chicago region and beyond. In addition to photography, the exhibiting artists use video installation, sculptural objects and interactive maps to document and inspire action around the often overlooked relationship between the growing petroleum industry and climate change.
