“A residency is a gift to an artist allowing time to reflect on their artistic path, with an added provision of a different environment to inspire and expand creativity.”
 
To honor the opportunity of her February 2021 residency at the Desert Dairy Farm, Susan E. Roden will be creating a public art piece, A DESERT SCULPTURE which will address the fragility of Nature.

Pictured is the painted maquette built to scale and detail, illustrating the intended area’s natural habitat with inclusion of a jet in reference to the Twentynine Palms Marine Base. ­­­­­­Some of the imagery pictured would be the jet, craggy mountain ranges, joshua trees, scrub, raven, big-horned ram, and black-earred jack rabbits.

A Kickstarter project has been created to aid in the building and installation of A DESERT SCULPTURE and run through January 16th. The sculpture is a three-sided, triangular wooden tower that would spire up to nearly seven feet at completion. It would be comprised of five components, consisting of a wooden base, inner pole support, two main body parts (not for the functionality but rather for ease and minimal costs in transportation) and topped with a three-dimensional cow made from recycled materials. The cow will be completed during the residency and installed at the ending.
​
Once completed the sculpture should flow within the environment rather than be intrusive.
