Helios, burning man 2016

Black Rock City, NV 89412

This interactive sculptural installation, inspired by leonardo divinci's Vitruvian Man, was exhibited at the burning man festival in 2016. The sculpture is illuminated when all of the 6 pedestals are inhabited…. (trying to say someone need to be standing on each of the 6 pedestals to activate the sculptures illumination.) On the last day of the festival, the wooden sculpture was expertly lit on fire to symbolize release and rebirth.
