The Uinta Basin contains thousands of oil and gas wells, producing 80% of crude in the state. A large portion of this production takes place on public land, where oil and gas companies lease parcels from the Bureau of Land Management to be flattened and produced upon. These areas create a complex network of roads, pads, and movement which cut through public landscapes. Lessee’s Table proposes a new method of interpreting and experiencing the organisms created when private industry exploits public space.
