Abundance / Extracted, living with oil and mining in Africa
Through photography and poetry this book portrays scenes from everyday life in the Niger Delta, the Zambian Copper belt, and Johannesburg. What is it like to live with the pollution and oil day in and day out? 

While Abundance / Extracted features oils spills, sinkholes and toxic wastelands, it also foregrounds how people have caringly made these places their home.

The result of a long-term collaboration between academics, photographers, and poets, this book complicates and challenges narratives on extraction in Africa.
