Abstract
The Center for Extractive Nature Studies (CENEx) is a platform for the investigation of the extractive nature present from modernity to the present. Founded in 2020 by artists and researchers Lucía Egaña, Juana Guerrero and Isabel Torres, it aims to address from an interdisciplinary practice a series of issues and consequences of extractivism, understanding it as a constitutive element of certain epistemologies that reproduce and configure the distribution of life forms and "resources" throughout the length and breadth of planet Earth.
