Description
For PEDERNAL, the tripod was set up near the base of Cerro Pedernal, the mountain in northern New Mexico. It was the subject of many paintings by Georgia O’Keefe. The video is both a study of color and light (like painting), and an homage to O’Keefe and the object of her desire. After she died, her ashes were spread at the top of the peak.
