Deserts cover about one fifth of the Earth's surface and, perhaps surprisingly, are home to around one sixth of the world's population. Some of teh world's most famous deserts are hot, arid places, but cold deserts, coastal deserts and semi-arid deserts exist too. Deserts are far from empty, lifeless places. A variety of plants, animals, and other organisms have adapted themselves to the harsh environments, displaying considerable diversity.
This exhibition is a collaboration between the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum and Studio Art Quilt Associates.
