The Caves of Ra Paulette


Ra Paulette digs cathedral-like, 'eighth wonder of the world' art caves into the sandstone cliffs of Northern New Mexico. Each creation takes him years to complete, and each is a masterwork. But patrons who have commissioned caves have cut off nearly all of his projects due to artistic differences. Fed up, Ra has chosen to forego commissions altogether and create a massive, 10-year project, his Magnum Opus.
In 2010 Ra was approached by Jeffrey Karoff about making a film documenting Ra’s work. The result is the award winning short film CaveDigger.
