The Avi Kwa Ame National Monument in the Mojave Desert south of Las Vegas is a space where all of us can connect with nature. Also known as Spirit Mountain, it was designated as a National Monument in 2023 because of its significant cultural importance and great biological diversity.

Artist Alina Lindquist immersed herself in Avi Kwa Ame National Monument as the artist in residence at Mystery Ranch, an artist studio and and science research center. This special exhibition showcases the artwork she created there.

It runs through August 27.
