**Rick Dingus, "Navajo Pipeline," Graphite on Photograph, c. 1980, Signed** Measures 27" w x 23" h (framed), 15.875" x 20" w (art)
This extraordinary mixed-media artwork by celebrated contemporary artist **Rick Dingus**, titled *"Navajo Pipeline"*, is a compelling fusion of photography and graphite drawing, a hallmark of Dingus's innovative artistic practice. Created circa 1980, the piece reflects his nuanced exploration of the interaction between industrial development and the natural environment, with particular focus on the cultural and ecological implications of infrastructure projects on Native American lands.
The artwork features a photographic base depicting a section of the **Navajo Pipeline**, an extensive infrastructure project traversing the Southwestern United States. Dingus's application of graphite adds a conceptual and interpretative layer to the composition, transforming the photograph into a profound commentary on the environmental and socio-political tensions inherent in such projects. His intricate graphite overlays enhance the visual narrative, drawing attention to the complex relationship between human intervention and the natural landscape.
The piece is **signed by the artist**, affirming its authenticity and provenance. Preserved in excellent condition, it exemplifies Dingus's mastery in merging traditional photographic techniques with contemporary mixed-media approaches, creating works that are both aesthetically compelling and intellectually provocative.
