What is HEAT WAVE?
HEAT WAVE is a celebration of living in this wide-open, gorgeous, Sonoran Desert drylands bioregion, where extremes of temperature, aridity, and precipitation flavor and test all we feel, do, see, and are. The Sonoran Desert is the lushest of all 5 North American deserts; sustenance and beauty grow here, as does ingenuity. There is rich history of not only surviving, but thriving here, in a landscape of relentless summers, little rain, and few resources. Survival here depends on adapting to blowtorch-like summer days that bleed their heat into the nights, and on having enough water to drink and cool, for growing food, for the spiny desert itself, and one day enough to revive empty arroyos and rivers that once ran free, and to the sea. HEAT WAVE is a sweet-fierce offering of art and creative work born out of the essence of this unique place we call home, the desert southwest. HEAT WAVE is an opportunity to translate and transmute its dusty, spare language into colorful images, forms, sounds, and stories that reflect gratitude and awe, reverence and respect, enduranc and relief.
