A Lattice of Chemicalized Kinship

Abstract

This essay introduces fourteen essays and artworks comprising this issue’s Special Section, Critical Commentary, Critical Perspectives, Lab Meeting, and Cover Art that address the topic of Chemical Entanglements: Gender and Exposure. This introduction emphasizes not only the varied vernaculars of chemicalized knowing highlighted in this scholarship and artwork but also their shared theorization of how specific molecular encounters are propelled by biopolitical systems that extend or curtail relationality amongst humans, other species, and the environment.
