This storefront installation shows how the Climate Crisis, in epic proportions, has returned water to Payahuunadü/Owens Valley. See which climate refugees swim through the streets of Bishop after the icecaps have melted, the oceans have risen, and Bishop has been flooded. We wish to bring attention to the melting polar icecaps, the wasteful use of precious water, and how water in excess is as destructive and land-altering as a lack of it.
