"Ghost Rider" - sculpture by Charles Albert Szukalski in Rhyolite

Entry honoured in the Polonics Institute's Heritage Without Borders 2024 competition.

The sculpture is located in Rhyolite, an abandoned town in Nevada that was once a bustling mining centre. Today, it is one of the most famous 'ghost towns' in the US, with its abandoned buildings and art installations creating a unique atmosphere. 'Ghost Rider' prompts reflection on transience and human presence. This sentiment is particularly telling in the context of nearby Death Valley and the history associated with it.
