Featuring: Gabriel Thorburn and Bob Killen

This talk features two artists who have spent many years working in the blistering heat of the desert. Thorburn and Killen have been instrumental in the development of creative opportunities for artists to be resident in the Mojave National Preserve, over the years they have enable many artists to make a temporary home in the desert.

What has the impact of the residency been on the Preserve and how they see the desert and what has the impact of the desert been on these artists? Gabe and Bob will reflect upon their own creative practice and the impact of sharing their passion for the desert with dozens if not hundreds of artists. They will pick highlights from the years and if possible, show the last impact of the residency on those artists work.
