The God Tracking Station is an homage to Edward Kienholz’s satirical assemblage responding to Cold War–era space race anxieties. Loosely based on his God-Tracking Station #1 (1959), the work combines a truck headlight, deer bones, and concrete to suggest a primitive technological altar—reflecting on humanity’s attempts to locate meaning, power, or divinity through science and machinery.
