An aerial landscape of a petroglyphic site in northwest Botswana which recently has offered up evidence of being the world’s longest continuously-used ritual site, this work depicts both the relatively modern rock art (approx 8 to 10,000 years old) found on two hills of the region as well as a row of recently uncovered flints which were buried some 100,000 years ago as an apparent symbolic offering. This experimental piece functions as an ‘inauthentic landscape’ relating to a now defunct project which sought to explore aerial landscape forms and aesthetics.
