“No other landscape has ever captivated me so much. Its very existence - calm, clear, simple and unpretentious, an ideal state of wholeness and inner peace. The desert exists without effort. In its endless expanse and silence, everything else outside seems insignificant.” 
- Kathrin Horsch, resident 2024
