homestead cabins in the high desert |
|
The homestead cabins that dot the wild desert landscape of Wonder Valley can provoke both curiosity and unease in the outsider, but to the residents of Wonder Valley they’re home. They connect us as a community.
The homesteads have featured prominently in my work. The works, projects, and resources linked on this page explore the cultural legacy of the Small-Tract Homestead Act in Southern California's high desert. |
