Multiple Exposures Gallery is pleased to present CHISELED BY TIME: SCULPTURES OF THE MOJAVE DESERT, a solo exhibition of photographic work by Tom Sliter. The exhibition opens January 28 and runs through March 9, 2025.

CHISELED BY TIME is set in the vast, sun-scorched expanse of the Mojave Desert, where the boulders of Joshua Tree National Park tell a story written in layers of patience and persistence. The exhibition is an exploration of geological sculpture — a visual narrative of a complex geological dance that began millions of years ago with the earth’s tectonic upheavals and continues today with water and wind.

The result is nature's own Zen gardens — objects that embody both tremendous weight and an almost ethereal sense of precarious balance. Each boulder tells a story of survival, of gradual transformation, of both resistance and adaptation to some of the most extreme environmental conditions on the planet.

Through CHISELED BY TIME, viewers are invited to look beyond the immediate, to see the extraordinary in the seemingly ordinary, to recognize the art that exists not just in human creation, but in the patient, persistent creativity of our planet itself.
