Desert X 2021: The North Face x Gucci Pit Stop
To celebrate their collaboration and support of Desert X, Gucci and The North Face created a stylish geodesic dome to serve as the dedicated Pit Stop for visitors to Desert X 2021. This installation is covered in patterns from The North Face x Gucci collection, using different materials that relate to landscapes, travel and exploration.
Located in downtown Palm Springs, The Pit Stop is located in close proximity to a number of hiking trails in the area and just steps away from the Palm Springs Art Museum and the entrance of the Cactus to Clouds trailhead, a challenging 19.8 mile point-to-point trail featuring soaring Coachella Valley vistas.
Desert X 2021: “The Wishing Well” by Serge Attukwei Clottey
Serge Attukwei Clottey’s massive installation was created using woven pieces of recycled yellow plastic Kufuor gallons once used to transport water in Ghana.
“As repurposed relics of the colonial project, they serve as a constant reminder of the legacies of empire and of global movements for environmental justice.“
The Wishing Well refers to the wells to which many people around the world must trek daily, sometimes many miles, to access water.
