Art in Nature 2003-2004 Moisture 2. Team assembled by coordinator/artist Claude Willey .As a revolving collective of artists and researchers the Moisture Project has been developing over the last three years into an annual research program centered around Harper Dry Lake, near Hinkley, California. Moisture (Phase Two) involves the construction of location-sensitive structures for the collection, retention, and use/re-use of water. These structures, created by selected visual artists, serve as functional sculptural objects, installed in relation to the ground, and the hydraulic matrix of the region.
