Canadian photographer Sandi Wheaton‘s primary focus is human absence and nature’s presence where once-inhabited locations are abandoned. This body of work explores the Salton Sea’s slow transformation from a once-popular freshwater lake resort to a hyper-saline, receding and dying desert sea. By 2018, agricultural runoff waters that flow ino the Salton Sea will be diverted to San Diego county, reducing the water levels and exposing hazardous dust on the dry lakebed to the high dessert winds.
