Desert X is produced by The Desert Biennial, a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization founded in California, conceived to produce recurring international contemporary art exhibitions that activate desert locations through site-specific installations by acclaimed international artists. Its guiding purposes and principles include presenting public exhibitions of art that respond meaningfully to the conditions of desert locations, the environment and Indigenous communities; promoting cultural exchange and education programs that foster dialogue and understanding among cultures and communities about shared artistic, historical, and societal issues; and providing an accessible platform for artists from around the world to address ecological, cultural, spiritual, and other existential themes.

The image depicts a vast desert landscape under a clear blue sky. In the foreground, there are several hammocks made of dark fabric, arranged in a scattered pattern across the sandy ground. The hammocks are supported by wooden poles and are partially buried in the sand, with some showing signs of wear and tear. Sparse desert vegetation, including small bushes and grasses, is visible around the hammocks. In the background, a range of mountains with snow-capped peaks stretches across the horizon, contrasting with the arid desert environment. The overall scene conveys a sense of isolation and tranquility, with the stark beauty of the desert and the distant mountains creating a striking visual.
