Michael Heizer. Isolated Mass/ Circumflex (#2). 1968. Excavation in playa surface. Impermanent installation at Massacre Dry Lake, Vya, Nevada.

“This was the ninth and last of a series of Nevada Depressions that Heizer carved out of desert basins between June and September 1968. The linear trench loops around a circular segment of earth, which constitutes the “isolated mass.”
