Desert X is a biennial outdoor art exhibition in California’s Coachella Valley that transforms the desert into a platform for large-scale, site-specific installations. The 2025 edition explores themes of climate, time, and human impact through works by 11 artists. From living sculptures and light-based installations to 3D-printed adobe architecture and Indigenous futurism, Desert X redefines land art by confronting the environmental and cultural complexities of the modern desert landscape.

Land art creator and public artist, Olga Ziemska mines nature, philosophy, and science in search of connection points among the physical forces, biological structures, and mystical underpinnings of existence. She often attempts to make visible those concepts or properties that are indiscernible to the naked eye, such as cellular formations or magnetism. By making visual associations between the visible and the invisible — or the microscopic and the macrocosmic —Olga poetically underscores the interrelatedness of all things.
