Linda Gass, Trona Pinnacles at Searles Lake

Water Level at Trona Pinnacles 1920'

I wrapped a pinnacle in fabric to make an imaginary waterline and to suggest the water flows within the lake that once existed here. I chose a smaller pinnacle so I could work to scale with the fabric I had available. The fabric stuck to the sharp points of the calcium carbonate and I imagined the sea life sticking to these pinnacles. I let the surface of the pinnacle guide me as to how to place the fabric to create the waterline.
