Imperial Valley (Cultivated Run-Off) plot

Imperial Valley represents one of California's most important regions for industrial agriculture. Residual water (or runoff) flows through pipes, pumps, and canals toward the Salton Sea, an artificial lake heading for an ecological and economic disaster. The shots of the surroundings—which are dominated by monoculture—become increasingly abstract. Is this a real or an artificial landscape?
