Head In The Desert

Okay, cute pun, right?

Here's exactly what I mean:

a head found in the desert pic


I came across this while out kicking over some junk where people had been shooting out in the desert. Among the rusty cans, broken bottles and bullet-pocked stoves I found this!

At first It kinda' bugged me, after all, who would be shooting at the head of a female maniken (sp?) for fun? I then noticed it didn't actually have any bullet holes in it, so maybe it was just part of a target somebody was using - still, kinda' disturbing.

I thought the pic looked cool in an asbsurdist/surreal way, though. Should we call it "found art"???

Like some many mysteries out in the desert, I'd love to know the story behind this.....and then again, maybe I wouldn't!!!;)
