Rough Year
It was a tough year out on the playa but the art was like totes amazing. I really struggled this year to make it happen. Between the global pandemic, wearing a mask 24/7, and the heat, it was just a slog to make all these photos. I was pretty tired coming into the burn but I tried my best as usual. The photos are mostly in reverse chronological order. If you look at the filename it will tell you the date.
Music
Here is a Burning Man 2020 playlist I made for you to enjoy while browsing these images. I think you need to be signed in to Spotify (on the web) and have shields down on yur Brave Browser to listen right here. For some reason the player wont get any bigger than the box below so you might have to open the playlist in a new window.

Screenshots of the moment Twitch streamer LooMinairy achieved Burnception. LooMinairy himself was live streaming from the playa in an RV using the cell phone tower and a cell booster. The video feed was then brought into BRCvr (drive-in style screen made of Porta-Potties in a dome) and LooMinairy live streamed himself exploring his own livestream from inside BRCvr. It was Burnception and it was fucking glorious. It was the highlight of the 2020 burn for me.

Koro Loko by: Emily Nicolosi from: Salt Lake City, UT year: 2019 A billowing heart made of wire netting filled with hundreds of tiny dichroic plexi squares refracts the spectra of light in all directions. Benches under lightposts encircling the heart provide a place to hunker, commune and daydream. Like the exuberance of colors reflected by this heart, always-present and ever-shifting, this heart conjures the thousands of expressions and materializations of love prospected in the human experience.

The Temple of Direction by: Geordie Van Der Bosch from: San Francisco, CA year: 2019 The Temple of Direction is organized linearly. It recreates a restricted passage which expands in the center into a large hall. This is a response to the openness of the playa; it creates a space traveled end to end; versus wandering an open plan; this temple provides direction and focus. Linearity also reflects the passage of life; all lives have a beginning, a middle and an end which metaphorically is included in this temple’s form. Following this metaphor a variety of spaces are created; narrow spaces and wide spaces, dark spaces and bright spaces. Tunnels create intimate experiences with shade.. A large central hall expands in width and height providing a bright area suitable for gatherings.

Expansion Pavilion, The Folly and Razorback. 
The Folly by: Dave Keane & The Folly Builders from: San Francisco, CA year: 2019 The Folly represents an imaginary shantytown of funky climbable towers and old western storefronts, cobbled together from salvaged and reclaimed lumber from original San Francisco Victorians to be reborn in the desert, affording shelter, entertainment and perspective to the community.

#Slonik by: Mikhail Tsaturyan from: Moscow, Russia year: 2019 It’s a 75 ft fluorescent elephant which will be hard to miss on playa. #Slonik is designed to draw attention to elephant mistreatment in Africa and Asia. We should not let the elephants go extinct. If you take one element away from the ecosystem it will affect all the other creatures including humans themselves! Slonik — transliteration from Cyrillic — is the diminutive form of a Russian word that means elephant.

Circus Fabulae by: Benjamin Jones and the Populus Ludere from: Brooklyn, NY year: 2019 Circus Fabulae is a whimsical two story swing set with beautiful, custom designed mosaic roof and circular play space for performances of all kinds. At its a heart is a community space produced by a community of artists for the community to interact on. Circus Fabulae is at its core an interactive art piece that fosters participation from the community. First, it brings together a variety of artists to design the swings and mosaic ceiling, then it provides the residents of Black Rock a place to rest and play during the festival and finally, it is a performance space for all kinds of mediums (dance, theater, games, music, spoken word) that encourages one to push personal boundaries and deepen one’s connection to the community at large.

The Man’s Army Burn by: Michael Ciulla & The Rave Knights (Alexandra Friedman, Nick Harris, John Jones) with support from Sin Cohen, Steven Platt, Lizzy Layne, Ryan Geist Bozajian & Ciulla Associates from: Los Angeles, CA year: 2019 The Man’s Army is 100 androgynous life-sized human figures standing in a 10×10 grid. Each figure has skin of white wax and a unique 3D printed face created by a point-cloud scan of real people. At night an internal LED creates a glow emanating from within. The body and face create a blank canvas for expression. Throughout the week the figures are customized, culminating in a transformative burn. The piece is a visual metaphor contemplating conformity through shared non-conformity. People, from a distance may appear homogeneous but once among them you see their individuality. Through shared experience burners are altered and stretched by the thoughts and intentions of one another and then transformed through an expression of impermanence.

Duane captures his mutant vehicle Rabid Transit at Reared In Steel’s Fire Kethedral by: Reared In Steel from: Petaluma, CA year: 2019 The Fire Kethedral will resemble a cathedral organ as a colossal fire instrument – a shrine to fire. The structure will be fabricated from steel tubing and CNC cut sheet metal standing forty feet tall and fifty feet long. The Fire Kethedral will be an ornate and powerful instrument capable of choreographing fire as music through a full keyboard as an instrumentalist plays sitting on an ornately decorated piano bench. Pipes mounted into the structure will shoot fire up into the air coordinated with every keystroke. The Kethedral will be adorned with stained glass lighted by flame rail pilots creating a tabernacle of fire and light. LED lighting will amplify the visual effect of the fire and sound.

Pauper’s Ballroom by: Pedro Loughran from: Sebastopol, CA year: 2019 A Pauper’s Ballroom is what our parents tell us when walking down to a beach, a clearing or any other beautiful place in nature. A palace free to all. A pauper’s ballroom. The piece is a grand staircase with no second floor, framed by four towers. The way to the ballroom is to climb the staircase, turn around and then descend. The ballroom is the playa but best appreciated through the descent of a staircase, giving you the trappings of grandeur, while being merely pretense to the actual beauty of the free, natural space of the playa. “Nothing” is the absence of substance. It is the void, the infinite unknown. In this way, the “Stairway to Nothing” is the “Stairway to the Void.” Or it’s just the “Stairway to the Playa’s Second Floor.” URL: http://paupersballroom.org Contact: david.nelsongal@gmail.com

Cloud Swing by: Lindsay Glatz with Curious Form from: New Orleans, LA year: 2019 Cloud Swing consists of swings suspended from a glowing cloud. Through utilizing a ubiquitous symbol of childhood, the work remains accessible and unassuming. The swing itself generates feelings of nostalgia and simplicity. While the swings remain unoccupied, the cloud above emanates a steady white glow of light, appearing to float within the darkness. The light shines downward highlighting the empty swing in an invitation for passersby to enjoy its delights. Once the swing is occupied the transformation and color begins to glow. Cloud Swing explores the transformative possibilities of imagination and innovation. Showcasing that no matter what pulls you back wonder, delight, and joy will inevitably push you forward.

love, earth by: The love, earth writer collective from: Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada year: 2019 The largest love letter movement ever conceived. The purpose: to inspire a clean climate future by spreading simple commitments to our planet. The art is intended to mobilize citizens to use the power of sending and receiving letters of love from Earth to change, contribute and commit to an environment that we can all be proud of. The installation will be large enough to be captured from space, and thus our imaginations. In year one, a sky-facing comma will emerge and form a love letter altar. Within the wood structure, a writing area would support a hanging collection of completed letters, growing organically, drawing on attendees to contribute to a siren call from Earth, distributed around the world after the event by the artists.

It recreates a restricted passage which expands in the center into a large hall. This is a response to the openness of the playa; it creates a space traveled end to end; versus wandering an open plan; this temple provides direction and focus. Linearity also reflects the passage of life; all lives have a beginning, a middle and an end which metaphorically is included in this temple’s form. Following this metaphor a variety of spaces are created; narrow spaces and wide spaces, dark spaces and bright spaces. Tunnels create intimate experiences with shade..

The Shrine of Sympathetic Resonance by: tyson ayers and Resonant Arts from: Oakland, CA year: 2019 The Shrine of Sympathetic Resonance is a sanctuary dedicated to letting participants experience the phenomena of sympathetic resonance. All the walls of this epic structure are made of piano harps, surrounding the participant with 20,000 musical strings that echo back every sound they make. All the strings are tuned to pentatonic scales based on the Schumann Resonance, the earth’s fundamental frequency, so that anything played on the strings sounds musical. Five intimate, pentagonal chambers let participants deeply immerse themselves in the experience, while the open-air center space allows for larger gatherings. A 39′ tower rises up from the center’s intricately designed dias while detailed artworks adorn the space.

Fragments, 2019 by: Marc Ippon de Ronda from: Paris, France year: 2019 “Fragments” by French artist Marc Ippon de Ronda has been designed for Burning Man 2019. Where the artist turns an old Black Rock Desert legend into reality. The installation plays with the illusion of appearances and our ever-changing perception of self and surroundings, a recurring theme in de Ronda’s work. During the day Burners see their reflections evolve inside the fragmented mirrors as they move through the sand winds and find shelter in its corners and covers. At sunrise and sunset the installation invites for meditation. Burners ascend and descend the central staircase experiencing a golden hue of warmth from the sun. At night, “Fragments” shifts again into abstract LED surfaces creating a magical apparition in the desert darkness. URL: https://fragmentsart.org Contact: contact@fragmentsart.org

Bee Dance by: Andrea Greenlees, Andy Tibbetts, and Josh Haywood from: London, UK & Reno, NV year: 2019 Bee Dance is a whimsical and inviting art installation in the form of two gigantic Dancing Bees, their legs entwined and their heads touching in a bee kiss. It celebrates one of the most fascinating examples of communication in the natural world — when forager bees return from their exploratory flights and perform the Bee Dance for the other bees, carrying out specific routines in order to communicate the distance and direction of pollen, nectar and water from the hive. Bee Dance is a strong climbable structure that Burners can clamber over and cling to, just as pollen clings to a bee. The Bees are bronze in colour, but on their dancing feet they wear gleaming copper ballet shoes with copper ribbons. The Bees are transformed into dancers.

The Flybrary by: Christina Sporrong from: Taos, NM year: 2019 The Flybrary is an extraordinary library within an enormous human head, partially cut open at the top allowing a flock of illuminated birds to emerge. Within the head are several levels of catwalks to climb and nooks and crannies to sit in and enjoy the selection of books. The eyes and mouth are portholes to the outside world. Up above, the open ceiling holds a large chandelier radiating soft light within. It’s a dreamy, transformative space providing an intimate and surreal refuge for contemplation, written wisdom and freedom of thought.

Mariposita by: Chris Carnabuci from: Cold Spring, NY year: 2019 Mariposita, meaning “little butterfly”, represents rebirth – of coming out of a shell, escaping confinement, and breaking through to a more meaningful and enlightening existence or experience. The act of emerging, however, is usually not so simple, and the complexity experienced both within the individual viewer and expressed externally as a communal experience, will become the atmosphere surrounding this piece. A rebirth requires power, curiosity, determination, and support, all characteristics that lead to revival and restoration. Mariposita is meant to inspire awakenings and reawakenings, growth and regrowth, beginnings and ends.

A road of yellow brick weaves away through a peaceful trail of giant flaming poppies. Propane, Steel, Methanol, Wood, Brick, Iron, & Rubber are assembled to create a magical journey No Place Like Home draws from the mythology of the Wizard of Oz, a tale that embodies the themes of personal transformation and discovery.

Connections by: Oxana Belka from: Chicago, IL year: 2019 We will bring ten mannequins. Building on the foundation of the human form, each mannequin will be uniquely painted and designed and will represent the spectrum of human emotions. As a whole, the art piece will represent the human experience. We live in a symbiotic relationship where we influence and affect change in one another. Through creativity, expression, and vulnerability, we are able to transform those around us, and they in turn transform us. At night, the mannequins will also be illuminated. The illumination will breathe life and further animate these forms. To the observer, the mannequins will become representative of not only the burning man experience but also a transformative journey, fueled by our bonds.

The Shrine of Sympathetic Resonance by: tyson ayers and Resonant Arts from: Oakland, CA year: 2019 The Shrine of Sympathetic Resonance is a sanctuary dedicated to letting participants experience the phenomena of sympathetic resonance. All the walls of this epic structure are made of piano harps, surrounding the participant with 20,000 musical strings that echo back every sound they make. All the strings are tuned to pentatonic scales based on the Schumann Resonance, the earth’s fundamental frequency, so that anything played on the strings sounds musical. Five intimate, pentagonal chambers let participants deeply immerse themselves in the experience, while the open-air center space allows for larger gatherings. A 39′ tower rises up from the center’s intricately designed dias while detailed artworks adorn the space. URL: http://www.soundcave.org Contact: tyson@soundcave.org

Taking Flight by: Nicki Adani from: Mill Valley, CA year: 2019 Nicki Adani’s “Taking Flight” emboldens visitors to be who they truly are, inspiring them to leave behind what is holding them back. A 10-foot tall feminine bird-like figure, welded from raw steel rods and tubes, her wings spread wide, takes flight from her perch upon a 10-foot tall spoked wheel, representing the circle of life. Viewers interact by making colorful ropes and weaving them into the wheel as a metaphor of releasing one’s past. Experiences already lived through can’t be erased, but they can speak their truths, and be let go. In the process, individuals can connect to their inner strength allowing them to spread their wings to fly free. URL: http://time2flyart.com Contact: nicki@time2flyart.com

The Man’s Army Build by: Michael Ciulla & The Rave Knights (Alexandra Friedman, Nick Harris, John Jones) with support from Sin Cohen, Steven Platt, Lizzy Layne, Ryan Geist Bozajian & Ciulla Associates from: Los Angeles, CA year: 2019 The Man’s Army is 100 androgynous life-sized human figures standing in a 10×10 grid. Each figure has skin of white wax and a unique 3D printed face created by a point-cloud scan of real people. At night an internal LED creates a glow emanating from within. The body and face create a blank canvas for expression. Throughout the week the figures are customized, culminating in a transformative burn. The piece is a visual metaphor contemplating conformity through shared non-conformity. People, from a distance may appear homogeneous but once among them you see their individuality. Through shared experience burners are altered and stretched by the thoughts and intentions of one another and then transformed through an expression of impermanence.

Mariposita by: Chris Carnabuci from: Cold Spring, NY year: 2019 Mariposita, meaning “little butterfly”, represents rebirth – of coming out of a shell, escaping confinement, and breaking through to a more meaningful and enlightening existence or experience. The act of emerging, however, is usually not so simple, and the complexity experienced both within the individual viewer and expressed externally as a communal experience, will become the atmosphere surrounding this piece. A rebirth requires power, curiosity, determination, and support, all characteristics that lead to revival and restoration. Mariposita is meant to inspire awakenings and reawakenings, growth and regrowth, beginnings and ends.

Galaxia Burn by: Arthur Mamou-Mani from: London, United Kingdom year: 2018 Galaxia celebrates hope in the unknown, stars, planets, black holes, the movement uniting us in swirling galaxies of dreams. A superior form of Gaia in Isaac Asimov’s Foundation series, Galaxia is the ultimate network, the fabric of the universe connecting living beings into one entity. Galaxia is shaped of 20 timber trusses converging as a spiral towards one point in the sky. The triangular trusses form dierent paths towards a central space holding a giant 3D printed mandala, the heart of Galaxia. The timber modules start large enough to hold small alcoves in which people can write in peace. As participants walk through the path, the timber modules lift up and become thinner and thinner towards the sky as people reach the central mandala. URL: https://mamou-mani.com

This Too Shall Pass – Moondancer by: Lekha Washington from: Mumbai, India year: 2018 High up in the night sky, a giant glowing sphere, half lit, half black, uneven surfaced, can be seen from far across the playa- except that it is a shape-shifting, dancing form that feels like a moving planet – an eclipse in motion. It is lit from the inside and suspended with a very specific internal tying technique that pivots it, allowing it to sometimes disappear, sometimes be all there, and everything in between, all through the flow of the wind. Hypnotic in its movement, reflecting the weather around it, appearing and disappearing in different parts of the playa, messing with all sense of orientation, the Moondancer by Lekha Washington.

Galaxia by: Arthur Mamou-Mani from: London, United Kingdom year: 2018 Galaxia celebrates hope in the unknown, stars, planets, black holes, the movement uniting us in swirling galaxies of dreams. A superior form of Gaia in Isaac Asimov’s Foundation series, Galaxia is the ultimate network, the fabric of the universe connecting living beings into one entity. Galaxia is shaped of 20 timber trusses converging as a spiral towards one point in the sky. The triangular trusses form dierent paths towards a central space holding a giant 3D printed mandala, the heart of Galaxia. The timber modules start large enough to hold small alcoves in which people can write in peace. As participants walk through the path, the timber modules lift up and become thinner and thinner towards the sky as people reach the central mandala. URL: https://mamou-mani.com 
RadiaLumia by: FoldHaus Collective from: Oakland, CA year: 2018 RadiaLumia is a geodesic sphere, five-stories tall, and covered with a breathing skin of origami shells and radiant spikes. Its shape nods to radiolaria, a tiny protozoa with intricate mineral skeletons that covered the desert thousands of years ago, when it was once the sea floor. From the outside, you can see the folds of the shells, made of corrugated polypropylene and illuminated with over 100,000 LEDs. Inside the sphere, a platform offers a place for people to retreat and look out to the surrounding landscape. The shells open and close in response to visitors’ presence, constantly in motion, sometimes protecting the intimate interior of the sphere, sometimes revealing a glimpse of its heart.

Come-Million! by: Amit Weissenstern from: Tel-Aviv, IS year: 2018 Come-Million is a giant colorful chameleon that shines up beautifully when playing interactively with her friends! Come-Million’s skin is made of hundreds of tiles carrying thousands little lights. Their colors change in reaction to the participants’ behavior inside, sensed through its pumping heart. A playful collaboration is demonstrated through the interaction between the people inside the chameleon, and passerby. Inside the chameleon there will be an interactive game that the visitors and the chameleon will participate in using a set of handles of different colors. Citizens of Black Rock City will sense and understand Come-Million’s through its signals and listen to her heart – to help her shine with millions of colors.

Robot Resurrection by: Shane Evans from: Denver, CO year: 2018 Robot Resurrection is towering 30 foot tall, human piloted, articulating sculpture made from reclaimed airplane parts and found objects. From the torso cockpit, the operator(s) manipulate the Robot’s motions and fire effects. This piece is a representation of we all have become… Robots. It is a wake-up call of how large these problems are. We have been controlled for too long. Robot Resurrection was born from what we as a society have discarded. Our hope is that this 28′ Robot will inspire reflection upon one’s self and be a reminder of the power we all hold. We hope it awakens some awareness of our situation and encourages some small change on a small scale that leads to big change in the massive system. Contact: ourbigrobot@gmail.com

Plantoid Garden: A Blockchain-based Life-form, Featuring the Photo-synthesizer by: Primavera De Filippi & Okhaos Creations from: Paris, France year: 2018 A Plantoid is the plant equivalent of an android: a robot or synthetic organism designed to look, act and grow like a plant. Its Body is an interactive mechanical sculpture activated by environmental factors and human attention. Its Soul is a blockchain-based software governing its reproduction. Wandering through the playa, you may stumble on the Plantoid Garden, in the middle of which are three giant 10 to 20 foot tall mechanical plants made of welded scrap metal, with a strong but elegant steampunk flavor. Their stems are made of large, industrial chain; their leaves are made of photovoltaic panels and their flowers of forged metal. Half plant, half-android, they come to life when triggered with sunlight, wind and human attention. URL: http://plantoid.org Contact: hello@plantoid.org 
ICHIRO Sacred Beings by: Marianela Fuentes, Arturo Gonzalez and Sarahi Carrillo from: Mexico City, Mexico year: 2018 The exact replica skeleton of the Velafrons Coahuilensis, a dinosaur from the Cretaceous period, 72 million years ago. The dinosaur will be decorated in the art of the Huichol, an indigenous tribe of Mexico who now lives in the same lands that once were populated by the Velafrons. Next to the Velafrons the head of a T-Rex with the same design. These visions also represent the flow of energy that exists within the human body and the universe. The dinosaur will be illuminated from all sides to be visible at night. Ichiro is a very emotional altar of ancient times on which there will be an original ritual every day at sunset, aiming at connecting with our ancestors and our inner self.

BEBOT by: Andrea Greenlees, Andy Tibbetts and Josh Haywood from: Surbiton, Surrey, England year: 2018 BEBOT is a cute, friendly, thirty-five foot tall steel robot that invites Burners to climb up into its interior and ‘BE My Eyes’, ‘BE My Ears’, ‘BE My Voice’, ‘BE My Beating Heart’. An endearing comic book robot built on a huge scale but undeniably cute, this installation is intended primarily for play but conceptually it explores aspects of robotics that should concern us. ‘Cuteness’ is already the dominant aesthetic of digital culture and features heavily in robot design. Cuteness triggers in us a desire to approach and engage with the cute object. Emotional engineering of robots lowers our barriers to privacy and clouds our perception of risk. BEBOT’s forked devil’s tail suggests that all may not be as innocent and harmless as it seems. Contact: andrea@hylemo.com

Chilopod by: Lawrence Grown, Embrio LLC from: Berkeley, CA year: 2018 The Chilopod [ky-lo-pod] is an interactive insect-like structure, an example of a “building-as-living-organism.” Daytime: Participants can climb the spine ladder, and slide down to the tail. An internal soundscape conveys breathing, and whale-like song. The Chilopod responds to human speech with its other-worldly insect-like voice. Nighttime: Exterior lights evoke a living skin. When the Chilopod hears music from nearby art cars, its lights morph and pulse to the beat, like a chameleon floating through a sea of sound. Participants can touch node points to immediately change the lighting patterns, and explore further interaction. Inside the legs appear as ribs, and the lights convey the inner workings of the organism’s heartbeat and breathing. URL: https://www.chilopod.life/ Contact: chilopod1@gmail.com

Desert Guard by: Lu Ming from: Beijing, China year: 2018 Fenghaizhen’s design is inspired by the armor of Genghis Khan whose Mongolian empire ruled China during a part of the 14th century. The Mongolian army resisted their enemies’ aggression thanks to Genghis Khan’s military tactics, a strong system of weapons and their special armor. It had a very primitive but effective shock absorbing and impact diverting system. This art piece enlarges the armor to a height of 15 metres weighing 10 tons and embedded the soul of a Mongolian warrior. It wants to remind everyone, that we must never use artificial intelligence for war. Otherwise, humanity creates weapons that kill us. We hope that this warrior makes us realise that we shouldn’t only worship technology, but also put restrictions in place. Contact: beijingburners@gmail.com

Long View, a polar bear stands in the desert by: Don Kennell and Arctic Burn 505 from: Santa Fe, NM year: 2018 A 34 foot polar bear made from white car hoods looks across the boundless vista of Black Rock City. The polar bear is an unlikely visitor to the Playa made from materials transformed from another time and place. Manifesting forces of climate change, she is searching for allies. Taking the “Long View” is crucial to survival. Combining content and joy, we ask the viewer to develop a relationship with the animal. Polar bears help humans imagine a faraway place, a place most will never visit. They are uniquely positioned as ambassadors to bring the arctic into human awareness. Animals disappear to make room for our cars. Turning wrecked cars into monumental animals visually reverses this process and impacts the consciousness of the viewer. Contact: arcticburn505@gmail.com

Stardust by: Paige Tashner from: Richmond, CA year: 2018 Stardust’s overall look is ethereal and otherworldly. By night, playa travelers will be drawn to a glowing, low-lying mystery disc. As they venture closer they’ll see that the disc is actually a flying saucer – and a comfy bench! A Galactic Tube embellished with illuminated celestial bodies extends up from the bench’s center. Cosmic Rays splay up and out of the tube, dripping end glow fiber optic cables, creating “stardust” overhead, slowly swaying. The soft sound of hidden wind chimes further enhances the twinkling “stardust” effect. Just waiting for discovery are hidden-in-plain-sight buttons that trigger shooting star effects. By day, the gentle sway of the Cosmic Rays and the soothing sound of the wind chimes continue to quiet the mind. URL: https://www.wearestardust.art

Dancers at Resolute Arch by: Richard Rhodes, Sculptor from: Seattle, WA year: 2018 The Resolute Arch is conceived as gathering place and high-impact landmark on the horizon. it’s intended to start a conversation, draw the viewer towards an unexpected conclusion and experience. Appearing broken and hanging inexplicably in place, the mind-altering assembly of stone challenges our perception of what we think we know, thought we understood. The sculpture is fundamentally an open symbol. The break in the form demands attention, presenting the shifting dualities of continuity and rupture, menace and security, unbidden fear and unearned trust. It is both heavy and light, impossible, yet it stands, challenging our perceptions. Timeless and transient, the stone arch stands in contrast to our disposable culture.

Moon and Galaxia by: Mamou-Mani from: London year: 2018 Galaxia celebrates hope in the unknown, stars, planets, black holes, the movement uniting us in swirling galaxies of dreams. A superior form of Gaia in Isaac Asimov’s Foundation series, Galaxia is the ultimate network, the fabric of the universe connecting living beings into one entity. Galaxia is shaped of 20 timber trusses converging as a spiral towards one point in the sky. The triangular trusses form different paths towards a central space holding a giant 3D printed mandala, the heart of Galaxia. The timber modules start large enough to hold small alcoves in which people can write in peace. As participants walk through the path, the timber modules lift up and become thinner and thinner towards the sky as people reach the central mandala.

Big Dirty Secret by: Oz Wilcox from: Richland, WA year: 2018 Big Dirty Secret (BDS) is the second art piece in a series of Dirty Secret Art. Last year Little Dirty Secret was the first and was a huge sensation. BDS will be an 8’x8’x8′ Cube Box. A door will lead inside where Participants will find a rather large desk that accentuates the “Big” in BDS. In the drawers they’ll find, dirty mags, whiskey bottles, little black books with mistresses’ phones numbers, and other items that the office inhabitant would rather not divulge. Everyone has a secret. Most everyone has a job. Lots of folks are in mundane offices, laden with Motivation Posters, Calendars, and Pics of Family Members. This is where secrets are most often kept. LDS was the kids’ art, BDS is the Adult’s place to share their Dirty Secrets. 
Desert Guard Build by: Lu Ming from: Beijing, China year: 2018 Fenghaizhen’s design is inspired by the armor of Genghis Khan whose Mongolian empire ruled China during a part of the 14th century. The Mongolian army resisted their enemies’ aggression thanks to Genghis Khan’s military tactics, a strong system of weapons and their special armor. It had a very primitive but effective shock absorbing and impact diverting system. This art piece enlarges the armor to a height of 15 metres weighing 10 tons and embedded the soul of a Mongolian warrior. It wants to remind everyone, that we must never use artificial intelligence for war. Otherwise, humanity creates weapons that kill us. We hope that this warrior makes us realise that we shouldn’t only worship technology, but also put restrictions in place. Contact: beijingburners@gmail.com 
Kinesios by: ND Collective from: Nashville, TN year: 2018 Kinesios is an imposing steel colossus formed by two internally lit vertical steel planes set parallel to each other. Perforated with a binary code on one side and a chaotic pattern on the other side the two planes support a hanging sculpture that participants can swing by synchronizing their body movements, cooperation is the key. The internal lighting is affected by the pendulum’s movement, the higher the motion, the greater the pulsation, frequency, and synchronization of the lighting. It is a piece of contrast and conflict. Man vs. machine, order vs. chaos, a binary limitations vs. freethinking existence. By putting the human spirit in the center, mankind is the activator, only we can be the solution to our own creation. URL: https://www.ndcollective.net Contact: brad@norrisarchitecture.com

Iron Horses Galore by: Adrian Landon from: NEW YORK, NY year: 2018 Metal sculptor Adrian Landon brings forth to you his expression, through steel and blood sweat and tears in the making, of his experience and close connection to the incredible and unique majestic animal that most people once knew, the symbiotic relationship with horses. One can feel the energy by looking into the eyes of these creations, the energy of these powerful beasts, and the energy that was put into their making, hours of pounding sheet metal by hand and with machines that the artist designed and built himself. Landon has been sculpting for 10 years now, beginning in New York City and is honored to be able to bring these works to one of the greatest and most real art gatherings of all time.

Four prismatic towers 30ft tall stand in a circle and bend and sway inwards and outwards in a hypnotic dance. Meanwhile, colors dance and swirl around the sculpture, within and amongst the towers on high density LED arrays. Participants can control the movement and lighting through an interactive interface.

HaHa… by: Laura Kimpton with Jeff Schomberg from: Reno, NV year: 2018 HaHa… is a celebration of life. With the loss of Larry, Dana, DJ, Ken, Laura’s brother and other burners , we want to take a moment to celebrate the time we had with them. To raise our proverbial glass in celebration to all they did to create this wonderful, joyful life we have as part of Burning Man. While we feel their losses keenly, mourn their parting from this physical life, we know that they, and Larry in particular, liked to revel in the moment, seize the day, and share laughter and fun whenever and wherever possible. Even in the darkest moments, the darkest times, we need to cling to this remembrance of joy and laughter. This sculpture is a reminder, a touchstone, and a celebration.

From the torso cockpit, the operator(s) manipulate the Robot’s motions and fire effects. This piece is a representation of we all have become… Robots. It is a wake-up call of how large these problems are. We have been controlled for too long. Robot Resurrection was born from what we as a society have discarded. Our hope is that this 28′ Robot will inspire reflection upon one’s self and be a reminder of the power we all hold. We hope it awakens some awareness of our situation and encourages some small change on a small scale that leads to big change in the massive system. Contact: ourbigrobot@gmail.com

Tree of Ténéré by: Alexander Green, Zachary Smith, and Patrick Deegan from: San Francisco, CA year: 2017 An enormous lifelike tree, Ténéré offers shade to wanderers, adventure to climbers, and transcendent community to those gathered beneath its 15,000 LED leaves. Like its namesake – considered the most isolated tree on Earth until its destruction in 1973 – Ténéré serves as a place of refuge and ritual for desert wanderers. Standing more than three stories tall, it beckons to passersby with the promise of shade and adventure, conjuring spontaneous communities out of desert sand and sun. At night, LEDs hidden within each leaf begin to glow. The 15,000 leaves form a dome-shaped “canvas of light” that towers over the playa, spanning more than a thousand square feet. Participants lying under the tree experience sublime light shows set to ambient music or live performance. And they directly influence the canopy lights through their sounds and biorhythms, creating moments of transcendent oneness with each other and with nature.

The Temple by: Marish Farnsworth and Steven Brummond from: Oakland, CA year: 2017 The form of the Temple begins with life out of balance. Throughout the Sierra Nevada, species of pine trees are dying, compromised by a bark beetle which has proliferated due to human interruption of the cycle of forest fires, and climate change. The material of these trees, donated to our project, harvested and milled, becomes the basic building block of the Temple. Interlocking timber pieces in formation become a Temple that is both cloud and spire; inverted pyramidal columns suggest the negative-space of a forest canopy, simultaneously supporting a vast pagoda-like ‘cloud’ framework which in turn supports a central spire. In this way disorder gives way to harmony, and a group of dying trees is re-ordered into a cathedral of timbers stretching toward the sky; filtered sun rays will illuminate the intricate work of hundreds of hands building in unison; a collaboration that knits together a community as roots intertwine to give a healthy forest stability.

On select evenings, La Victrola’s cabaret stage hosts period appropriate vaudeville and music performances transporting participants back in time.

Tara Mechani by: Dana Albany from: San Francisco, CA year: 2017 Tara Mechani is a figurative sculptural installation that fuses representational aspects of the female Buddha, Tara, with future characteristics of the female robot in a contemporary way. The idea is to create a “being” that encompasses both the past and the future, melding worlds of ancient wisdom ideology and philosophy with future mechanics and technology. Its interaction and expression urges viewers to contemplate the other-worldly union of these two compelling and guiding forces usually at opposition now intertwined. Contact: danaalbany@juno.com

The Tomb of Nahtaivel by: Eric Coolidge and Eric Whitney from: Brooklyn, NY year: 2017 Ancient stories tell of the Leviathan, believed to be a great beast, a demon or one of the Four Princes of Hell. We believe that this branch of lore represents the individual struggle between right and wrong, physically manifested in the real world. Sometimes facing personal problems can feel like you’re battling a great beast. This temple is about the external and internal forces that bring people together to create the world in which we all participate whether it be good or evil. The very definition of ritual implies history and repetition. The visual telling of history is an ancient practice older than written lore. We want to encourage people to share their own histories and share their own battles within this space. URL: http://www.tombofnahtaivel.com Contact: tombofnahtaivel@gmail.com

The Temple of Awareness by: Utah Builders Community from: Salt Lake City, UT year: 2017 Temples offer environments for us to immerse ourselves into an unworldly place of harmony and peace. The Temple of Awareness is an organic form, similar to a pine cone. Seen from above, it evokes aspects of a bloomed lotus. The Temple is a 13-sided dome structure that is 35 ft. in diameter at the base. It has seven levels that reach 35 ft. high, each level with projecting decorative wings encircling it. From a distance, the wings create a feeling of lightness, while the dome as a whole conveys a rooted presence. Participants enter the Temple through one of thirteen sizable inverted “V” openings. Inside is a welcoming, vaulted, airy interior defined by a series of shrinking, concentric circles soaring overhead. The dome top is left uncovered to allow for the participant’s connection with the cosmos. The open interior design incorporates hundreds of shelves lining every wall, as well as several freestanding sub-altars that provide many niches and ledges for objects of remembrance.

Tree of Ténéré by: Alexander Green, Zachary Smith, and Patrick Deegan from: San Francisco, CA year: 2017 An enormous lifelike tree, Ténéré offers shade to wanderers, adventure to climbers, and transcendent community to those gathered beneath its 15,000 LED leaves. Like its namesake – considered the most isolated tree on Earth until its destruction in 1973 – Ténéré serves as a place of refuge and ritual for desert wanderers. Standing more than three stories tall, it beckons to passersby with the promise of shade and adventure, conjuring spontaneous communities out of desert sand and sun. At night, LEDs hidden within each leaf begin to glow. The 15,000 leaves form a dome-shaped “canvas of light” that towers over the playa, spanning more than a thousand square feet. Participants lying under the tree experience sublime light shows set to ambient music or live performance. And they directly influence the canopy lights through their sounds and biorhythms, creating moments of transcendent oneness with each other and with nature.

Fire Dancer and The Temple by: Marish Farnsworth and Steven Brummond from: Oakland, CA year: 2017 The form of the Temple begins with life out of balance. Throughout the Sierra Nevada, species of pine trees are dying, compromised by a bark beetle which has proliferated due to human interruption of the cycle of forest fires, and climate change. The material of these trees, donated to our project, harvested and milled, becomes the basic building block of the Temple. Interlocking timber pieces in formation become a Temple that is both cloud and spire; inverted pyramidal columns suggest the negative-space of a forest canopy, simultaneously supporting a vast pagoda-like ‘cloud’ framework which in turn supports a central spire. In this way disorder gives way to harmony, and a group of dying trees is re-ordered into a cathedral of timbers stretching toward the sky; filtered sun rays will illuminate the intricate work of hundreds of hands building in unison; a collaboration that knits together a community as roots intertwine to give a healthy forest stability.

As members reach personal and communal coherence, it will be reflected on the sculpture, sounds and lights will follow through the whole process rising harmoniously as their frequency does. Delighted visually by mystical sounds, musical chords and magical lights. This experience will not only influence you personally, it will also contribute to the entire atmosphere and energy of playa.

Sysimetsä by: LaynaJoy Rivas & Eva Reiska with The Landing Ravens Art Collective from: Ravens Landing, Clearlake Oaks, CA year: 2017 Beauty lies within the Burnt Forest. Sysimetsä is a memorial for the fires that destroyed Lake County, as well as a beloved art space by the name of Ravens Landing back in 2015. Participants walk through a burnt forest with trees that stand erected from the playa with huge ravens perched upon their branches. Pieces of burnt metal and scraps are hand crafted instruments of sound, bringing the forest back to life through interactivity. The sound sensitive lighting will dance to the beat of our hearts. This place is a temple for the old and new, a sacred piece of nature that is awoken to hold space to give thanks to what’s been given and what’s been taken. In the belief that change is the only constant grace given to Humankind, to embrace it in all ways is the only way to brighten our evolution. The philosophy of Sysimetsä is to Experience, Let Go, Accept, Be Thankful, and Recreate the world you want to live in.

Ascension by: Crimson Collective from: Los Angeles, CA year: 2017 In the Japanese culture the Crane is seen as a symbol of peace, luck, prosperity and health. It is believed that if you fold a thousand origami cranes, the universe will grant you a wish. We chose to build a giant crane (Coco) in the style and tradition of origami; so wherever it went it would bring with it the spirit and the energy of peace and wellness. Ascension (Coco), is a 150 ft wide and 45 ft tall giant white origami crane made of aluminum truss, white fabric, and tension wire. The aluminum structure is modular, making the crane a temporary installation, but completely mobile. The 100+ components and over 7000 sf of 80% mesh texilene sunshade material, that make up the crane, can be dismantled and shipped in one 40 ft shipping container.

In 2003, Zachary Coffin built the Temple of Gravity as an expression of the year’s Burning Man theme – Beyond Belief – and this year, we’re bringing the massive 180,000 pound sculpture back for Radical Ritual. The Temple of Gravity is a 60-foot diameter steel dome with 5 arms, each arm supports a suspended granite stone slab (which weighs ~15,000 pounds) and is anchored by a granite base slab.

Charon by: Peter Hudson from: San Francisco, CA year: 2017 A gigantic 30′ spinning wheel with posed human skeletons mounted on its inner edge, Charon is fully powered by a minimum of 12 people working in unison. Participants are invited to pull a series of 6 ropes which cause the wheel to rotate progressively faster. When the rope pullers are coordinated enough to get the wheel spinning at the correct speed, a strobe is activated, revealing the skeletons’ animation. The animation tells the story of Charon, the mythological gondolier and ferryman of Hades who carried the souls of the recently departed across the river Styx, the last right of passage on the way to the afterlife. This piece debuted at Burning Man, 2011. URL: https://www.hudzo.com/charon/ Contact: peter@hudzo.com

Firedancer at Methuselah is a 20′ metal sculpture of the world’s oldest tree. The tree’s bark is steel, patinated to blue, brown & white, and seams of glass reveal propane flames within the trunk, reflected in a mirror below. The tree’s roots form benches on which Burners can congregate. Ancestry and evolution are central themes for our work, whose namesake’s rings and branches bore witness to the entire span of recorded human history. Great trees gave their limbs and leaves as axles, paper, bows, hulls and roofs, and held space and time for our ancestors’ radical rituals. Black Rock City contains many altars of dance and ecstasy, and many more of learning and relaxation, but the city provides comparatively few spaces for contemplation and remembrance. Circular spaces, lone trees and eternal flames are all strong ritualistic symbols and joining them in Methuselah helps to dislocate Participants from the frenzy of present day time and re-anchors them in the still time of mythology.

Phoenicopterus Rex: Welcome Home by: Josh Zubkoff from: San Francisco, CA year: 2017 We are bringing our dream to life and that dream is a 40 foot tall flamingo! Inspired by Don Featherstone’s classic, Phoenicopterus Rex will feature climbable legs and a sitting area on the back of this massive lawn ornament. As an art piece, Phoenicopterus Rex is a physical manifestation of Americana pop-kitsch meets modern industry: all bubblegum pink, fiberglass and steel. It aims to make the familiar absurd, exciting participants with the iconic image and then drawing them in so that they may interact with the structure. In its final installed stages, fake grass and a white picket fence will surround the flamingo, transforming the immediate space into a hosted experience. The piece will be lit by spotlights mounted to the surrounding picket fence, to be a beautiful pink beacon in the night. 
Free Range Animal Automata Menagerie by: Edward Crell from: Sonoma, CA year: 2017 We are bringing a menagerie of large animal automata to the Playa. Powered by humans, these colorful animals represent over 2,000 years of human fascination with animated mechanisms. Automatons (or automata if there are more than one) have been around for centuries. The art of animating human or animal form has fascinated mankind since before the birth of Christ. There is a personal catalyst in bringing our animal automata to the Playa. One of our artist’s brothers died young when he was overcome with cancer related to AIDS. He was a fantastic person and brought so much joy the lives of so many others. One of his most prized possessions included a collection of wooden automata animals. It is in his memory, and with great joy that we bring these pieces to life in Black Rock City. The automata will be large interactive sculptures that poke fun at and bring life to the radical rituals of animal playfulness and pleasure. Five or six free range animals will round out the menagerie.

At night, LEDs hidden within each leaf begin to glow. The 15,000 leaves form a dome-shaped “canvas of light” that towers over the playa, spanning more than a thousand square feet. Participants lying under the tree experience sublime light shows set to ambient music or live performance. And they directly influence the canopy lights through their sounds and biorhythms, creating moments of transcendent oneness with each other and with nature.

Step Forward by: Miguel Angel Martin Bordera from: Carros de Foc, San Vicente del Raspeig, Alicante, Spain year: 2017 Step Forward transmits the principles of consciousness and neighborly love, increased through Art. Euterpe is a giant teenage girl puppet who walks and talks, interacting with Burning Man’s participants to learn from them and to, tenderly, teach them her values. A young girl dreams of a better world in which everybody loves each other. One day she wakes up in an unknown place where she doesn’t really know if she is awake or in a wonderful dream. She watches in amusement all that takes place around her at the time she gets involved in Burning Man’s experience. Contact: info@carrosfoc.com 
XOXO by: Laura Kimpton and Jeff Schomberg from: Reno, NV year: 2017 XOXO is the latest sculpture created by Laura Kimpton and Jeff Schomberg. Letters written for generations are often signed with XOXO, signifying the sender is sharing hugs and kisses. This Monumental Word sculpture is Laura and Jeff’s love letter to the playa, and the thousands of burners who together make the event the most spectacular experience on the planet.

2016
Temple Burn from: Petaluma, CA year: 2016 The temple this year will be built in the tradition of David Best temples, but with a significant departure from his usual style – this temple will be hand-built without CNC cut materials. It will be extremely ornate, with a large interior altar and a large chandelier. This temple will take on an ancient air, patina’ed with organic water-based stains, and look as if it were built hundreds of years in the past. There will be 8 altars placed around the courtyard, which is walled off to create a protected, quiet, respectful space. The interactivity will be the usual function of the Burning Man temple: it will be a place for the community to come and express their emotions, reflect on the losses of friends and family members, and celebrate the lives of people around them. The temple will be built with the consideration of the community, with adequate space to accommodate the needs of people in the temple and the surrounding courtyard for reflection, safety and privacy.

The Harmoniscope from: Seattle, WA year: 2016 The Harmoniscope is a 20′ tall mysteriously pulsing 9-sided structure that transports participants to another place in space-time. Inside is an 8-sided column containing a reactor core made up of many colorful spiraling acrylic rods, the light from which gets reflected back to the outside of the building and on to the playa. It requires participants to work together to decipher the mystery of how it works, and why it’s here. Participants must decipher an unknown language, illustrated on a Rosetta Stone, using audio/visual cues, a kaleidoscopes and controls to collectively align the reactor core. Once aligned, they will be rewarded with a dramatic sound and lighting event that energizes it, triggering the journey that will bring them to their next destination.

Shrumen Lumen from: San Francisco, CA year: 2016 Shrumen Lumen is a garden of oversized mushrooms, made of folded geometry that allows their bodies to undulate in various patterns. Building off a similar aesthetic and folding strategy as Blumen Lumen, a garden of flowers on the Playa in 2014, the new garden aims to have a more significant kinetic movement and improved lighting. People will be able to interact with the mushrooms and affect how they move simply by being present in the sculpture garden. At night, the flowers light up internally and will react to the sounds around them. Contact: jimmychion@gmail.com 
Helios from: New York, NY year: 2016 In resonance with the Leonardo’s Renaissance – the era of rebirth – Helios calls upon every citizen of the playa to activate their inner fire that is essential to illuminate our present era of darkness. Inside an interactive chamber of six Vitruvian activation platforms, participants offer a private statement of their highest selves to a central mirrored witness, and then ritualistically and physically project light beams to illuminate others and collectively light up the night sky. Helios is burned in ritual celebration of the light we collectively must shine to illuminate the darkness. URL: http://www.kateraudenbush.com/helios Contact: kate.raudenbush@gmail.com

Spacecats from: Chicago, IL year: 2016 Cats and dogs are known to be one of humanity’s best companions. For animal guardians, pets play an important role in their lives. Studies have shown owning a pet helps anxiety, depression, stress, lowers blood pressure, and regulates heart rate. As is true with any relationship, some human-pet relationships are likely to be more rewarding than others. Some people are more attached to their pets than others and those feelings could influence the impact of the pet on the person’s health and life. The rocketship will have engraved writing dedicating this project to all those who has lost a pet and all the cats who have decided to leave us reminding them they are always with us. My hope is that when people discover this installation out in deep playa, they will be touched with this install reminding them of their lost loved ones and providing humor to all the cat lovers. 
Burner Climbing The Catacomb of Veils from: San Francisco, CA year: 2016 Catacomb rises like a rocky outcropping off the desert floor, evoking Black Rock Point itself. It is a ruin of a previous society– a remnant of our collective search for moments of quiet, introspection and reflection. It is a journey of discovery and a descent into a subterranean world. A path winds up to the Narthex at the eastern Pyramid and from this vantage point, the inward descent begins. Ancient relics of a collective history grace the walls as shafts of light illuminate effigies and offerings. These are moments in our primeval memory, inviting us further downward and inward into ourselves. The journey culminates in an inner sanctum– a sanctuary of veils– a confluence of concealment, revelation and sublime beauty. URL: https://www.facebook.com/CatacombOfVeils

Sonic Runway from: Berkeley, CA year: 2016 Imagine sound speeding across the desert as light. The Sonic Runway is a 1000 ft corridor of lights that visualizes the speed of sound. Participants, especially sound art cars, are encouraged to play music or make other sounds at one end. This triggers colorful patterns of light that ripple down the corridor. Participants at the far end of the runway will see the sound coming at them before they hear it. No matter where you stand, the lights and the sound will be in sync. The first Sonic Runway was installed at Burning Man as part of Sol System in ’03/’04. 16 years later, the new Runway takes the same basic concept but with an all new design, greater interactivity, and more intricate visualizations.

Inside an interactive chamber of six Vitruvian activation platforms, participants offer a private statement of their highest selves to a central mirrored witness, and then ritualistically and physically project light beams to illuminate others and collectively light up the night sky.

Le Attrata from: Oakland, CA year: 2016 After the Events of 2175, the perfect storm of industrial pollution, population explosion and the destruction of biodiversity raged. It was only a renewal of the vows between science and nature that saved us. The amount of horrendous wastes we had piled up over a millenia- much of it toxic and flammable- was daunting. The Fuocco Falene are a crux of biomech, artistry and divine intervention. Fire moths- drawn to the most noxious of wastes, able to consume the wastes and leave a benign byproduct. Their consumption of fuels is spectacular, so much so that Falena became sought after for their beauty. It has become fashionable to convert outdated civic fixtures, like fountains, to be attractions to the Fuocco Falena. Le Attrata is a prime example of such an installation, its jagged spires providing perches for the Falena, the curved benches housing seating for people, and the Falena chrysalises lighting the way throughout the night.

@EARTH #HOME from: Fairfax, CA year: 2016 @Earth#Home is Laura and Jeff’s eighth installation slated for Black Rock City. Built of steel and lit with LEDs and fire, @Earth#Home is a love letter (no pun intended) to Burning Man participants, reminding them that to come to Black Rock City is in essence to come home. It’s a touch stone for the belief that it’s the art that makes the event come alive, that inspires us all to embrace and promote Burning Man’s ethos and principles every day of the year, across the globe.

Parasolvent from: Anaheim, CA year: 2016 “Parasolvent” is an interactive kinetic sculpture. A 23 foot tall rotating ring of parasols that open as they ascend and close as they fall. Parasols are protective devices created to shield us from the elements. Here they represent the emotionally protective devices we believe are protecting us, but are in fact hindering our progression. This is a meditative piece about letting them go. The parasols exit a human figure, blossom (open) as they rise, and decay (close) as they fall. Parasolvent was inspired by the artist’s first Burning Man in 2013 and chosen as an Honorarium piece for 2014. URL: http://facebook.com/derbykinetic Contact: dan@benedictaugust.com

Roshanai (Illuminate) by Charles Gadeken from: San Francisco, CA year: 2016 ROSHANAI is a path of enlightenment, shifting colors in static form. Along this corridor, perspective changes and opposites unite. Islamic mathematical art is married to the great Western landscape, serenaded with the voice of your heart and the whisper of the Playa. ROSHANAI comprises two double-walled panels that create a 108-ft long tunnel of light and sound with a 3-ft corridor. The sides of the hallway rise from 8-ft tall at the ends to 12-ft tall at the apex in the middle. Simultaneously, the panels sink into the ground to form a shallow valley. Fractal arrangements of Islamic geometric patterns are cut into the outside panels, lit from within to illuminate the patterns and cast fantastic night shadows. The entrances will be 16-ft tall gates inspired by the Great Mosque of Isfahan in Iran, pointed arches filled with sacred geometry. The inside walls are smooth and lit in solid colors by daylight-visible LED spotlights embedded in the edges of the floor. URL: http://www.charlesgadeken.com/roshanai

Temple Project from: Petaluma, CA year: 2016 The temple this year will be built in the tradition of David Best temples, but with a significant departure from his usual style – this temple will be hand-built without CNC cut materials. It will be extremely ornate, with a large interior altar and a large chandelier. This temple will take on an ancient air, patina’ed with organic water-based stains, and look as if it were built hundreds of years in the past. There will be 8 altars placed around the courtyard, which is walled off to create a protected, quiet, respectful space. The interactivity will be the usual function of the Burning Man temple: it will be a place for the community to come and express their emotions, reflect on the losses of friends and family members, and celebrate the lives of people around them. The temple will be built with the consideration of the community, with adequate space to accommodate the needs of people in the temple and the surrounding courtyard for reflection, safety and privacy.

Pulse Portal from: Chicago, IL year: 2016 A portal acts as a gateway to a distant and magical world. Pulse Portal is a freestanding laser cut parabolic archway made from steel and tessellated dichroic acrylic pyramids. Juxtaposing futuristic materials that reflect the viewer and the rugged landscape will provide a sense of awe and inspiration as they step onto the playa. The combination of these materials and geometric design will create an effect that simultaneously feels space age and classic effectively placing the viewer in a time portal.

HYBYCOZO – Heart of Gold from: San Francisco, CA year: 2016 Sculpture 1- The Improbability Drive will consist of an all-pipe skeletal frame connecting into a mirrored hypercube shape made of mirror. The inside shape, a rhombic dodecahedron, has an optical illusion that looks like 3 different shapes in 3 different perspectives. The mirror shape on the inside will reflect the outside edges, creating a 4D dimensional hypercube effect. Sculpture 2- The Heart of Gold – will consist of a skeletal frame of a rhombic triactohedron and from its top-most point will hang a super intricate laser cut HYBYCOZO sculpture that will cast shadows far into the playa. This outer skeletal shape is the most complex shape that DaVinci drew and will form a super fun dome-like jungle gym. Sculpture 3- Hyperspace Bypass- A stacked set of 11 HYBYCOZO rhombic dodecahedrons shapes set on top of each other tessellating perfectly in 3D space. Its form is reminiscent of an iceberg or a 4D pyramid. In the day it will looking like a gleaming gold multifactored pyramid. URL: http://www.hybycozo.com Contact: hybycozo@gmail.com

She may simply be reaching for berries but perceivably she is reaching higher: to the northern sky and the constellation that is her name, Ursa Major. In navigation, the constellation is useful in pointing the way to the North Star. Ursa Major’s pose is inspiring, she brings the gaze and hopes of the participant skyward. She also demonstrates respect for the bears and nature, her pose is not like a taxidermy bear. She is in her natural state and unthreatening. With a durable, unique material that was used on their previous Burning Man project (Penny the Goose), Ursa Major’s fur will be made of US and Canadian pennies. The pattern and feel will be like fur.

Temple of Promise from: San Francisco Bay Area, CA year: 2015 A Temple’s purpose is to provide a safe space where the diverse and essential needs of the soul can take root and grow or surrender and find solace. This year, the Temple of Promise welcomes participants through an archway soaring 97 feet overhead. Once inside, the structure curves in on itself, tapering in width and height down to just 7 feet tall. Along the way, alcoves formed by the supporting arches, as well as wooden sculptures reminiscent of stones in a stream, create altars and semi-private spaces for individuals and smaller gatherings. The lines of the curved wooden walls draw the eye inward and create a canvas for written messages and mementos. As the path continues to curve, it opens into the contemplative altar and the heart of the Temple: a grove of three sculpted trees. The branches are initially bare. Participants will write messages on long strips of cloth and attach them to the trees, creating the gentle shade of Weeping Willows, increasing as the week progresses.

LOVE from: Odessa, Ukraine year: 2015 LOVE is a sculpture by Alexandr Milov. It demonstrates a conflict between a man and a woman as well as the outer and inner expression of human nature. The figures of the protagonists are made in the form of big metal cages, where their inner selves are captivated. Their inner selves are executed in the form of transparent children , who are holding out their hands through the grating. As it’s getting dark (night falls) the children chart to shine. This shining is a symbol of purity and sincerity that brings people together and gives a chance of making up when the dark time arrives. Contact: takoe.tm@gmail.com

Along the way, alcoves formed by the supporting arches, as well as wooden sculptures reminiscent of stones in a stream, create altars and semi-private spaces for individuals and smaller gatherings. The lines of the curved wooden walls draw the eye inward and create a canvas for written messages and mementos. As the path continues to curve, it opens into the contemplative altar and the heart of the Temple: a grove of three sculpted trees. The branches are initially bare. Participants will write messages on long strips of cloth and attach them to the trees, creating the gentle shade of Weeping Willows, increasing as the week progresses.

LOVE from: Odessa, Ukraine year: 2015 LOVE is a sculpture by Alexandr Milov. It demonstrates a conflict between a man and a woman as well as the outer and inner expression of human nature. The figures of the protagonists are made in the form of big metal cages, where their inner selves are captivated. Their inner selves are executed in the form of transparent children , who are holding out their hands through the grating. As it’s getting dark (night falls) the children chart to shine. This shining is a symbol of purity and sincerity that brings people together and gives a chance of making up when the dark time arrives. Contact: takoe.tm@gmail.com

R-Evolution from: San Francisco, CA year: 2015 Constructed of steel rod and balls and covered in stainless steel mesh, with LED lighting effects, R-Evolution is a 48 foot tall sculpture of a woman, Deja Solis, standing firmly with both feet on the ground, eyes closed, arms open at her sides, palms forward, a peaceful expression- present. The culmination of The Bliss Project, a series of three monumental sculptures of a woman, Deja Solis, expressing her humanity, R-Evolution like Bliss Dance and Truth is Beauty, is intended to demand a change in perspective… to be a catalyst for social change. She is intended to challenge the viewer to see past the sexual charge that has developed around the female body which has been used for power and control, to the human being. We hope to inspire men and women to take action to end violence against women, making room for women’s voices, thus allowing both women and men to live fully and thrive.

Totem of Confessions from: Petaluma, CA year: 2015 Come one, come all to the mystical Totem of Confessions, Michael Garlington’s newest Chapel! Experience cathartic release as you liberate your secrets, unearth the hidden lives of those around you, and test your fortune and powers for uncovering concealed nooks and hidden compartments holding relics and gifts from the artists’ own hands. Upon approaching the 50′ edifice, whose design recalls ancient Khmer and Vedic architecture, revelers bask in the beauty and chaos of black and white photography in assemblage with salvaged and re-purposed mixed media. In the middle of the great room, a golden confessional stands as a portal to revelation and interaction with the art and other participants. Mysteries and discoveries will reveal themselves in the installation’s details and will, in turn, inspire visitors to explore their own hidden meanings and inner worlds.

Mazu Goddess of the Empty Sea from: New Xishi City, Taiwan year: 2015 You walk through the dust and heat of day, beyond the heart of the city, and from the haze before you emerges a shape that is both plant and place, flower and temple, both open and contained. No fence keeps you out, but one hundred and eight lanterns mark out the space, like a fairy ring in the forest, like the hundred and eight beads of the Buddhist rosary. Through the archway you walk. Up the long, low steps, the muffled sound of your tread meets the familiar clunk of wood; the music of a seaside pier rises from the dust, invoking the sense of some long lost place where water once stretched out to kiss the horizon. Below, the improbable sounds of water and the briefest hints of ocean blue tickle the imagination. From above, eight dragons of fire and steel peer down, watching you, or look out into the distance, waiting. And again, the thing that is neither quite plant nor place seems to hover at the edge of defining, the green rooftop like a lily pad, the great lotus rising up out of the dried mud and the memory of water, each petal big enough to sleep in, open out from this improbable tree, this pillar of memories. Inside, past and present blend and dance together. Old rites and new technologies bring fresh form to venerable, ancient practices. There is hidden circuitry here: casting the moon blocks reveals the will of the gods in a panoply of color and light. The breath of dragons explodes outward in answer to prayer. The goddess herself has been known to appear, if the moment is right. You leave the temple, clutching message and map, and the sound of music finds your ears. Drums, gongs and shouting voices emerge from fantastical shapes, finned and spiny, nautilus-headed dancers and demons with a thousand eyes walk out of the dust, beckoning you to join them. You wonder, for a moment, if you are in fact in a desert, or in the memories of an ancient ocean, seeing the dreams of the sea floor 
Life Cube Project Burn from: Dobbs Ferry, NY year: 2015 The Life Cube is an engaging, interactive, art-driven environment for the expression of goals, dreams, wishes, and aspirations. Citizens of BRC inscribe their thoughts on message-walls and on wish-stick postcards deposited into the Cube. In the spectacular finale, the Cube and all the wishes are burned and sent out together into the universe. The Life Cube features a 24’ high architectural design with stairs, pillars, mirrors, posts, and high places inviting Playa visitors to walk through, climb, hang-out, touch and interact. The community can express themselves on write-boards, contribute to the tapestry wall, and watch painters creating collaborative murals all week long. At night the cube takes on new life with spectacular lighting that enhances the drama: wall-washers, spots, strobes, lasers, and psychedelic lights add brilliant color that changes interior rooms and spaces, sending rainbows across the dark Playa landscape and illuminating the art and people around the Cube.

Serpent Mother from: San Francisco, CA year: 2015 The Serpent Mother is a 168′ long sculpture of a skeletal serpent, coiled around her egg. Propane fire runs down her spine, with 41 poofers erupting from the top of her gleaming vertebrae. Reaching 20’ in the air, her hydraulically-actuated head and jaws chomp at the sky. The serpent is a highly kinetic, participant-controlled installation. Fire effects are a major interactive and sculptural element of the piece, controlled by pushing buttons located on the ribs. The audience is invited to direct her movements, using controls that move the head and jaws, effectively making each show a unique event created by the participants. Twice every evening, the operator crew will perform methanol shows, shooting multi-colored flames 40′ in the air from the egg, illuminating the night sky.

Last Flamethrower from: San Francisco, CA year: 2015 (Part of Charnival) An awesome opportunity to engage directly, personally, and intensely with the elemental power of Fire. Participants at the Last Flamethrower are escorted by the crew within a fenced zone and gifted with control of a major piece of heavy metal: An imposing device that projects a stream of burning gasoline into a garden of sculpture, making the various targets come alive with fire and light. The Last Flamethrower is a part of the Charnival collection of interactive fire arts and games and is guaranteed to fill the darkness with heat and light. At the Last Flamethrower participants have a unique and unforgettable chance to explore their personal interactions with power, fire, and all around bad-assery. It is an experience not to be missed.

Temple of Promise from: San Francisco Bay Area, CA year: 2015 A Temple’s purpose is to provide a safe space where the diverse and essential needs of the soul can take root and grow or surrender and find solace. This year, the Temple of Promise welcomes participants through an archway soaring 97 feet overhead. Once inside, the structure curves in on itself, tapering in width and height down to just 7 feet tall. Along the way, alcoves formed by the supporting arches, as well as wooden sculptures reminiscent of stones in a stream, create altars and semi-private spaces for individuals and smaller gatherings. The lines of the curved wooden walls draw the eye inward and create a canvas for written messages and mementos. As the path continues to curve, it opens into the contemplative altar and the heart of the Temple: a grove of three sculpted trees. The branches are initially bare. Participants will write messages on long strips of cloth and attach them to the trees, creating the gentle shade of Weeping Willows, increasing as the week progresses.

Truth is Beauty by: Marco Cochrane from: Mill Valley, CA year: 2013 Truth is Beauty is the second sculpture in a three-part series featuring singer/dancer Deja Solis, the first of which was Bliss Dance (2010). For Truth is Beauty, Deja stands on her toes, head back, arms raised, in an expression of radical self-acceptance and love. She can do this because she is safe. With the female body exposed and demystified you will see past what has been objectified and used to disempower: it’s the feeling, energy, strength, power… the person that remains. These sculptures featuring women safe in the present to express themselves, are meant to help raise consciousness around violence against women, begin a healing process to make room for women’s voices, and ultimately result in a balance of energy that will allow women and men to thrive… My intent is that these sculptures express this healing energy and inspire us to take action; to finally say enough is enough!

Carnival of Mirrors 
The Man Base 2015 before dawn. 
Cirque de Reflexions from: Surbiton, England year: 2015 (with light painting by me) The Cirque de Reflexions immerses Burners in a reflective experience. It plays with the literal reflections created by mirrored facets and provokes personal and inward reflection. The intriguing outer walls resemble ornate Chinese folding screens. Once inside Burners will find a mysterious mirrored crystalline sculpture which will reflect their crazy decorated bodies in its multiple facets and encourage spontaneous and uninhibited performances. The tattoo imagery of the intricately laser-cut petal walls is inspired by the magnificent Tattooed Ladies of the early 20th Century Travelling Carnivals. The ‘skin’ of the Cirque celebrates these Ladies as early pioneers of Radical Self Expression. It reminds us that our bodies are our personal canvas and how we paint, ink, pierce and decorate them, clothe and conceal them, flaunt and expose them, remains our own very personal choice. Elegant mirrored images of contortionists in the lower panels also celebrate the marvels of the human body. Contact: andreagreenlees@hotmail.com 
Lil Al from: New Orleans, LA year: 2015 (with light painting by me) Lil Al is a A 60′ long roaring wooden alligator effigy and symbol of the NOLA burners coming together as a community. It’s a group effort that raises awareness of our love for each other, Mardi Gras, and Burning Man. The first rendition of this art was created to represent our spirit at the T-Bois Blues Festival in Larose, Louisiana about an hour south of New Orleans on a family owned alligator farm. This installation is the embodiment of how Burning Man can bring so many wonderful people together like family and encourage them to drive a giant lizard 2,000 miles across the country just to watch it burn among friends.

Compound Eye/”I” from: Newark, CA year: 2015 Compound I” glistens like a totemic pillar of eyeballs as light undulates over its multifaceted orbs. Mirrored spheres, surfaced with lens-like convex mirrors, stack one atop the other to a height of 18’, referencing compound eyes of insects, forms of Buddha heads and the Mandelbrot fractal at once. Circling around “Compound I”, reflected light follows us…as if we are being watched. Looking into the shifting centers of the glistening lenses, we meet our own gaze. As we realize it is our own sight and form that animates these pupils, our sense of separate-ness from the art is challenged. Stepping away, we see our image simultaneously contract/overlap with everyone else’ onto the mosaic globes before us- a composite of shared reflection. The eye as instrument of reflection and the ‘I’ as object of reflection; boundaries blur between perspectives of inner and outer, personal and collective, to convey a picture of interconnectedness, with us as facets of a compound ” I “.

Prairie Wind Chapel from: Venice, CA year: 2015 Excavated from a dust bowl near the border of Oklahoma and Saskatchewan, the Prairie Wind Chapel was once the heart of the roving town of Aeolia until a tornado wiped it all from the map. As the sole remaining structure of this ghost town, the chapel captures the pilgrims’ peculiar affinity for worshiping the wind and the beautiful mysteries this silent force creates on the open plain. Twin copper wind harps flank the canvas chapel, enticing lost travelers with a dreamy siren song. Towering over the altar is a 40 ft. steel windmill which pumps a Victorian reed organ and two wood and metal pipe organs. Evoking the melancholic demise of the wind worshiping Aeolians, modern pilgrims can play three wind-powered keyboards, filling the restored chapel with the ephemeral sounds of yesterday. The Prairie Wind Chapel welcomes all wayfarers with its songs! URL: https://www.facebook.com/WindSoundSanctuary

The Alien Siege Machine Burn by: Dan Fox year: 2014 The Alien Siege Machine is a ghost ship. It travels through space and time imperiling all it encounters. Appearing throughout the epochs, crews are enslaved and are driven by a mysterious rancor to pilot the Machine into battle, often adding their own technology as they feverishly execute another volley of combat against the very civilization from which they came. The Alien Siege Machine’s immortal and profane war has come to our time and place. Now it sits on the playa, battle wounded, but battle-ready. God save us all. Contact: fox.dan@gmail.com

Mutant Vehicle and Parasolvent by: Dan Benedict from: Anaheim, CA year: 2014 Parasolvent is a mechanical expression of loss, release, healing and decay. Participants turn a crank to rotate a 20’ tall ring of red parasols. The collapsed parasols rise up through the chest cavity of a human figure and gradually open as they climb upwards, reaching full extension at the apex, and slowly closing as they descend. This piece is a meditation on the idea that engineering and architecture can create a space or object that acts a vessel for spiritual healing; imagining something we have held inside of us, be it sickness or pain, leaving us, rising, blossoming and decaying.

Eternal Return by: Peter Hudson from: San Francisco, CA year: 2014 Zoetropes are remarkably qualified to portray the cyclical nature of life. I have been blessed with the opportunity to explore this timeless theme through diverse cultures and eras. In brief three-second loops I have been able to explore some of the most timeless tales that transcend culture. The concept of the eternal return is touched upon in virtually all cultural and religious narratives. The concept can be found in Ancient Egyptian, Mayan and Aztec beliefs, in East Indian, and ancient Greek philosophy, as well as the 19th century deliberations of Friedrich Nietzsche. Tibetan Buddhism’s Bhavacakra is a symbolic representation of samsara, or “cyclic existence” The concept of the eternal return speculates that the universe has been recurring, and will continue to recur, in a self-similar form, an infinite number of times across infinite time and/or infinite space.

ReVitalize Toothbrush collective by: Scott London year: 2013 We are “Revitalize.” Our goal is to bring the collective conciseness of Burning Man to the outside world. We looked at one of the BM Principles, “Leave No Trace” ” and are using it to educate kids across the country on the importance of recycling plastic by recycling their TOOTHBRUSH. The Toothbrush is an everyday item that many of us forget is often made from plastic. We are asking schools to participate in collecting old used toothbrushes to help us build a communal art project. The toothbrush sculpture is a large globe, illustrating plastic is the plaque of the earth. It will look like a colorful large sphere, that once discovered upon the viewer will be shocked to realize it is made from toothbrushes. Lets use our collective power in putting plastic in its proper place through recycling. Contact: BMToothbrush@gmail.com

Truth is Beauty by: Marco Cochrane from: Mill Valley, CA year: 2013 Truth is Beauty is the second sculpture in a three-part series featuring singer/dancer Deja Solis, the first of which was Bliss Dance (2010). For Truth is Beauty, Deja stands on her toes, head back, arms raised, in an expression of radical self-acceptance and love. She can do this because she is safe. With the female body exposed and demystified you will see past what has been objectified and used to disempower: it’s the feeling, energy, strength, power… the person that remains. These sculptures featuring women safe in the present to express themselves, are meant to help raise consciousness around violence against women, begin a healing process to make room for women’s voices, and ultimately result in a balance of energy that will allow women and men to thrive… My intent is that these sculptures express this healing energy and inspire us to take action; to finally say enough is enough!

Idaho CORE: Marvin Burn year: 2013 Marvin The Vortexagon is Idaho’s newest project for its 2nd year as part of CORE. A sculpture representing chaos and geometry, reminiscent of a cascading waterfall, the swirling patterns of rivers, caverns, and tall columnar spires, Marvin pulls in a number of aspects we hold dear to our state. Is it a portal to some far off place? A remnant from some long-lost high tech civilization discovered in Craters of the Moon National Monument? As a swirling mass of energy, a vortex sweeps up everything in its path. In this way, the project has swept up the imagination of our community, and has gathered us together to bring forth something amazing. As it burns, it will provide gifts that are “fired” by the flames of the structure. These are clay pendants by the hundreds, each hand-crafted and unique.

Skeeball Or Riskee Ball (created by Christopher Guard & Site 3 coLaboratory) Every community needs an arcade, but for Black Rock City, not just any arcade will do. That’s why we’ve dreamed up the Charcade, where past and present interactive fire art and game installations come together to create the first ever fiery on-playa arcade! We’ve lured some old BRC favourites out of retirement and inspired a couple new pieces by bringing together a collective of 6 fire arts groups from across North America. The Charcade team has created a bank of 10 colossal metal Skee Ball machines that erupt fire, lovingly dubbed Riskee Ball. URL: http://thecharcade.com/ Contact: info@thecharcade.com

Wedding at the Church Trap by: Rebekah Waites from: lakewood, CA year: 2013 Church Trap is an interactive wonderland for the religiously rebellious. A large-scale decaying church, tipped on its axis like a box trap. Not only does it push participants to ask the question “why”, but it also invites the daring to take control of the many interactive features. A tricked out church organ, part central LED nervous system, part beautifully wicked installation art. It is your God. Or, are you its? Whatever the answer, play at your own risk. Feeling even more daring? Why not put your spiritual and religious beliefs to test by playing The Machine – an 80’s style upright video game. It might want to play “pulpit”, but it’s all “confessional”. URL: http://www.churchtrap.com Contact: rebekart@yahoo.com

A tricked out church organ, part central LED nervous system, part beautifully wicked installation art. It is your God. Or, are you its? Whatever the answer, play at your own risk. Feeling even more daring? Why not put your spiritual and religious beliefs to test by playing The Machine – an 80’s style upright video game. It might want to play “pulpit”, but it’s all “confessional”. URL: http://www.churchtrap.com Contact: rebekart@yahoo.com

Truth is Beauty by Marco Cochrane in the dust and a burner on a bike. Truth is Beauty is the second sculpture in a three-part series featuring singer/dancer Deja Solis, the first of which was Bliss Dance (2010). For Truth is Beauty, Deja stands on her toes, head back, arms raised, in an expression of radical self-acceptance and love. She can do this because she is safe. With the female body exposed and demystified you will see past what has been objectified and used to disempower: it’s the feeling, energy, strength, power… the person that remains. These sculptures featuring women safe in the present to express themselves, are meant to help raise consciousness around violence against women, begin a healing process to make room for women’s voices, and ultimately result in a balance of energy that will allow women and men to thrive… My intent is that these sculptures express this healing energy and inspire us to take action; to finally say enough is enough!

PsychoPhilia (Victoria, BC CORE) by: Kym Spencer and Kym Spencer year: 2012 As if buried up to the neck, a human head arises from the Playa; enter an orifice into the inner workings of this collaborative mind where synapses fire and a DNA-inspired ladder leads to a viewing platform rich with regional content as one peers over the playa. Collaboration, Fertility, Consciousness and Humanity are explored in Victoria’s CORE 2012 offering. More info at http://bit.ly/psychophilia URL: http://victoriacore2012.wordpress.com/

Well That Was Exhausting
If you made it this far good for you! That must have been exhausting. You might have noticed most of these photos are not from the playa in 2020. These photos are from an alternate universe. A timeline where we’re in a global pandemic and I decided to “take a year off” by painstakingly combing through every single photograph I’ve ever shot at Burning Man and picking out “a few” images that I’ve never published before. I went through all ~90,000+ photos I’ve shot on the playa selected images, processed them, captioned them, and uploaded them. It has taken me several months to make this. Many of the photos were passed over the first time around for various reasons. Most often they were technically wrong or I had “too many people” or “too many art” pictures in the set for that particular year. Many images here have also new meaning now that some time has gone by. Whatever the case these images hadn’t seen the light of day until now.
Wait HALP plz!
As you’ve seen I make LOTS of mistakes when I post a bunch of images like this. I would really appreciate any comments (very bottom of this page) or direct emails ( DuncanRawlinson@gmail.com ) telling me how to correct them. For example you could tell me the names of various unknown pieces or art. Command + F on mac or CTRL + F on PC for Name Unknown and you will see how many names I couldn’t figure out or remember. My brain is completely mush now so please forgive my errors. Feel free to email me and tell me how I’m doing it wrong in general. I will then update this post to reflect your comment or email. Copy the link to the photo so I’ll know which photo you’re talking about please or attach the photo in the email.
Thank You To My Family
Thank you Dorothy and my kids for allowing me to spend nights working on this photo gallery over the past few months. I love you so much!

Shout Outs
Shout out to all the multiverse build teams (especially BRCvr!), the streamers, the designers, the DJs, the performers, the behind the scenes server gods, the artists, the volunteers, ORG Staff, the Medical support, DPW, Fire Conclave, Media Mecca, and on and on. I could go on forever. I’m just grateful and humbled by all of the work you’ve done and continue to do to make this such a vibrant community.
I’m immensely grateful and fortunate to have been a part of all this over the years. I hope to see you in 2021. If we get together I’ll be the guy with a camera who looks like a dorky tourist and is very polite.
Keep Burning Man weird and potentially fatal!
Wait, next year actually was better?
