Has postmodernism really changed the way the artist relates to their art and environment? Addressing the delicate entanglements between the ethical and the material, this book explores how ethics have figured in the generation of art and images in the 21st century. Starting from the premise that in the Anthropocene the work cannot rest upon its separation from the world, this book develops new ethical thought that acknowledges art and film in their material and immaterial environment. In drawing on new materialism and continental philosophy, the chapters prove just how relative ethics become when applied to artistic creation. Questioning the ethicalities at play in the relations between the human artist, the art, non-human beings and the environment, practitioners contemplate the singular entanglements of relations and non-relations before, during or after a work of art or film comes into being.
