This piece, created for a "Far West"-themed contest, combines elements from Nevada (1868), Wyoming (1871), Nevada (1871), Montana (1872), Arizona (1873/1881), Texas, (1884), Kansas, (1887), Oklahoma (1900), Germany (2019), and Greece (2023). Drawing on Creative Commons collections from the US National Archives, Library of Congress and National Gallery of Art, this piece depicts a (sanitized) digital translation of our westward expansion, named for a line in the poem "Roundup Lullaby" by Badger Clark (1883-1957).
