WATER TOTEM
by Anne Faith Nicholls
El Paseo, Palm Desert, CA
Coordinates: 33.71975° N, 116.38526° W
Water Totem by Anne Faith Nicholls is a 10’ tall, 1-ton steel cylindrical totem commemorating and contemplating the conservation of the desert’s most precious natural resource: Water. Wrapped in the recognizable painted waves of artist Anne Faith Nicholls, the sculpture is entirely accessible and viewable in-the-round. Water Totem is a modern, industrial take on classical columns and indigenous totem poles, completed with a hand-painted finish that appears to undulate, shift, and recede as one moves by.
