About the work

Context and source material.

Hidden Valley was created for the State of Utah and extends the same public-history concerns present in Procession.

The painting turns toward petroglyph sites, exposed stone, and land made more vulnerable by use and tourism.

It stands as one of the clearest recent statements of Chamberlain's desert subject matter and civic focus.
