Jet Stream Slab
With charcoal made from sticks in the landscape, this drawing is a response to the rapidly changing jet streams overhead. As Arctic ice melt increases , the Arctic Jet Stream pattern dips and rises with more intensity causing longer drought seasons and severe floods along the Pacific coast. This site specific sketch on an old concrete slab located on the Desert Dairy residency property in 29 Palms, California shifted as the drawing was created over a two week time period as the winds each evening would partially erase marks from the day before. A drawing in collaboration with the moving winds.
