Last year Marina Zurkow researched the Permian Basin during a residency hosted by DiverseWorks. From Marfa to Midland, the artist met with geologists, naturalists, cattle ranchers, people working in the oil industry and activists.

What does the drill bit see? This was the driving question that led to the development of a visualization that explores both new and time-worn representations of geological strata, petroleum, and time.
