Local Artist Anna Moore sits down with Host, Kaylin RIchardson, to chat about her work on the Burns Reimagined art installation at Deer Valley. For this project, upcycled chairs from the recently retired Burns Chairlift, one of the first chairlifts at the resort and a staple for Ski School, served as a blank canvas for each artist to design and capture the essence of Deer Valley. From stunning scenics to portraits of Deer Valley legends like Stein Eriksen, they delivered — and you can now find these chairlifts-turned-masterpieces displayed around Deer Valley. Anna is a Utah-based painter who finds inspiration in the untamed lands of the West. After nine years of living in the Wasatch, she has found her mountain muse for life. As an artist, her deepest joy comes from physically tracing the landscape with her body (skiing, hiking, climbing, biking...) and then immortalizing that experience in paint.For the Burns Reimagined chairlift project, Anna wanted to feature the two types of winter weather we get at Deer Valley: “Bluebird” and “Powder Day." For the “Bluebird” design, she combined her favorite view (Clayton Peak from atop Empire lift) with a native Utah bluebird — the Scrub Jay. The “Powder Day” design uses more muted tones and features fluffy, pillowy pine trees and the first ski tracks after a fresh coat of snow. View more of her work at annaleighmoore.com.
