Desert Humanities has launched a crafted, limited edition book series called Strata focusing on dwelling in the desert. Each hand-crafted book brings together philosophers, artists, and scientists to provide various perspectives on life in the desert.
The first issued book is the iconic Saguaro. Saguaro includes internationally known artists Mark Klett and Andy Brown, the scientists who sequenced the DNA of the Saguaro—Martin Wojciechowski and Alberto Burquez, Arizona Poet Laureate Alberto Rios, cultural scholar of the Akimel O’odham nation David Martinez, among other beautiful contributors.
The books are carried by the locally owned design and curated objects store For The People and the ASU Art Museum.
