As Paraiso was being installed on the festival grounds, two Raices students, Clara and Arturo, describe what the installation would look like: a depiction of the Coachella Valley with mountains, windmills, palm trees, sunflowers, desert animals and bright colors with neon lights.
“It’s eye-catching,” says Clara, one of the artists.
Megan Long, another artist, describes it as a “giant diorama” that is “two dimensional but 3-D looking.”
