Artists Turn Toxic Factory Into Massive Art Project
Channel: WMX Presents
Date: 2018-02-05

Located 20 miles from Nipton, California on the eastern edge of the Ivanpah Valley, rest the toxic remains of “GolDome”, an abandoned, 40-acre, gold-processing mill. Owned and operated by the Vanderbilt Corporation into the 1980’s, the facility was active until 1994, when the implementation of the California Desert Protection Act suspended mining activity and transformed the East Mojave Scenic Area to into the newly protected Mojave National Preserve. In 2002, the EPA listed GolDome as a “Superfund Site”.

A $264,000 “short-term” clean up was executed to eliminate the “serious threats”, but, to this day, uncontrolled and hazardous substances still continue to pollute the area. It is unlikely they will ever be properly eliminated. INDECLINE’s new installation, “Death Metals”, is an environmental art-project in protest of man’s constant quest
for wealth at the expense of everything else. The project was carried out covertly over the course of 6 days by 8 members of the collective. The artwork left behind was created using plasma cutters, angle grinders and various other power tools.
