I went to the Salton Sea four years ago and just lately took another look at the photos I’d made on the trip.

Some of them appealed to me now more than they did then – and this is one of them.

I do not know what the artist (or artists) intended to convey with this installation in the Salton Sea. Pyramids are said to be linked to funeral rites as a passing of existence beyond time…this one in the dying sea seems especially poignant.
