The Seven Dwarfs

I set the alarm clock at 1:25am, got up and left my hotel room before 2am to go visit my seven little dwarfs...

They stood under the nightly sky, in the desert, quietly and attentively.  Their official name is "Seven Magic Mountains" -- the artwork by internationally renowned Swiss artist Ugo Rondinone.  Comprised of seven towers of colorful, stacked boulders standing more than thirty feet high, Seven Magic Mountains is a creative expression of human presence in the desert.  It punctuates the Mojave with a poetic burst of form and color.
