400 works of art don’t just appear as if in a desert mirage. Well, they do, but not without a lot of people, tools, and funds. Planners are planning. Makers are making. Art grants are granting! Crews all over the world are creating installations for Black Rock City. 

Katie Hazard, Director of Burning Man Project’s art department curates some artist's tales for us. Hear their stories in their voices. 

Hold onto your headlamp: 

We’ve got an interactive Man Base that looks like an octopus or a fjord or both
We’ve got a larger-than-life omniscient prankster traffic cone
We’ve got the insider intentions of this year's temple builders
We’ve got artists sharing cultural riches from China, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, the Republic of Côte d'Ivoire and the US.
