HIGH PLAINS DRIFTER, EPISODE 1: CROW CANYON, NEW MEXICO

Introducing Episode 1 of “High Plains Drifter,” a new video series documenting my adventures throughout North America’s southwest deserts & Great Basin plateaus in search of ancient graffiti and more. Hidden in this remote desert wash in New Mexico called Crow Canyon are the rock carvings of ancestral Pueblo & Anasazi artists that depict various gods & deities using anamorphic symbolism, as well archaic events in nature, humanity, and the every day. What I find most remarkable is how these pictographic murals share anomalous similarities to repeated graphic & mythical representations found in many other pre-historic world cultures, a theory on ancient art which I will be pursing throughout this series. As America dissolves into its next iteration I’m inspired to find out for myself more about our ancient past and all that was so that we may be better informed about our future in the midst of these extreme times.
