The deserts are the protagonists of this long-term project: Maria Rebecca Ballestra travels to the 12 world biggest - and some of the smaller, but important - deserts investigating their geopolitical or environmental aspects.
During the project process will take place exhibitions, conferences, and online publications; and as conclusion will be showcased in late 2018 a final exhibition in Venice, published a catalog and a book of articles and essays by the contributors.The most of the artist’s stays and travels are supported by local artist residence programs of contemporary art institutions and projects.
