Inspired by a visit to Palm Springs, Cathedral City and Desert Hot Springs in 2025, Lisette Schumacher explores the changing light and atmosphere of the Californian desert landscape. During her travels through the Coachella Valley, she encountered the striking contrast between the bright desert floor and the snow-capped San Jacinto Mountains rising in the distance.
While driving through the valley to visit historic mid-century modern houses, Schumacher became increasingly aware of how dramatically light and colour shift throughout the day in the desert environment. Intense sunlight, dry winds and vast open landscapes create subtle transitions in tone and atmosphere.
These observations form the starting point for Schumacher’s work, in which architecture, landscape and light come together. Her compositions translate the fleeting qualities of desert light into carefully balanced colour fields, reflecting the calm yet powerful presence of the surrounding environment.

Coachella Views XVIII brings together peach, coral and lavender in a light, open composition. The colours follow a flowing diagonal movement, leading towards a pale golden area on the right. Smaller lilac and coral forms gather around this opening, creating a point of focus within the otherwise expansive arrangement.
Lisette Schumacher based the series on the fleeting colour shifts she observed while travelling through Palm Springs and the surrounding desert cities. In this work, that experience is expressed with particular softness. Warm and cool tones move easily alongside one another, giving the artwork an elegant balance. Its intimate scale allows the nuances of the composition to be experienced from close range.
