Desert Humanities with Marina Zurkow

After talking with national park rangers, they presented us with a problem: people hiking through and living in the desert often do not know what to do in open desert space beyond snapping the requisite beautiful social media picture of the landscape. To help us with this problem, we invited New York artist Marina Zurkow to work with us. We are creating a structural system of image-and-text cards that invites visitors and locals to engage in new ways with the Sonoran Desert. project in progress for Fall 2022
