We hope to see you on Sunday, June 7 any time between 4-7PM for family activities, live music, wine, food and an opening blessing.
Sternberg was invited to respond to an empty concrete bunker located on the property of Presqu’ile Winery, the building unused by humans for years, yet quietly occupied by other species, nature slowly reclaiming it. Like the process of winemaking, his paintings emerge from an alchemical transformation.
Made in collaboration with the elements — soil, wind, sun, and water — they reveal themselves over time. The installation becomes a record of this place, this moment. Just as the landscape is shaped by both natural and human interventions, it will continue to evolve.
An email from LAND to follow, closer to the event date, with parking and wayfinding details.
along the high embankments will be open Saturdays and Sundays from12-5PM from Sunday, June 7 through September 20, 2026.

Public Opening Celebration: along the high embankments

Visit Cole Sternberg's "along the high embankments" — a free, self-guided installation at Presqu'ile Winery in Santa Maria, CA.
Los Angeles Nomadic Division (LAND) presents Cole Sternberg’s along the high embankments, on view through September 20, 2026.
Reserve a one-hour time slot and explore at your own pace. The experience is self-guided — plan for about an hour to take in the work fully. Time slots are available Saturday and Sunday from 12-5PM.
For this project, Sternberg was invited to respond to an empty concrete bunker on the property of Presqu'ile Winery — unused by humans for years, yet quietly occupied by other species, nature slowly reclaiming it. Like the process of winemaking, his paintings emerge from an alchemical transformation.
Made in collaboration with the elements — soil, wind, sun, and water — they reveal themselves over time. The installation becomes a record of this place, this moment. Just as the landscape is shaped by both natural and human interventions, it will continue to evolve.
Make a day of it. Presqu'ile's tasting room is located on the same property, surrounded by working vineyards and stunning Santa Maria Valley views. Tasting room visits are separate from installation tickets and require a reservation via <a href="https://www.exploretock.com/presquilewinery/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Tock</a> — we recommend booking both to get the full experience.
This project marks the beginning of a multi-year partnership with Presqu'ile Winery, bringing artist residencies, temporary commissions, and ongoing programming to the property.

Hi everyone! I’m 22 years old and recently got kicked out of home due to difference in conflicting beliefs from my family. I went from having a roof over my head to nothing, and right now work as a full time CNA and wanted to start a business for something I’ve always been passionate about. I worked for places such as Honda and BMW for many years as a retailer and want to start my own small detailing business to support myself and my partner. I can do very affordable prices for luxury brand level service. If anyone has any car cleaning, wash, detailing, stain removal, pet hair/odor removal, etc. work, I’d love to work with you and would greatly appreciate your support for my small business. You can text me or call me at (805)-668-7518 for any questions or personalized quote! Thank you. Check my work through this link: https://linktr.ee/TheDetailSpecialist
