Trees in Burning Man

Once a year, tens of thousands people gather in Nevada’s Black Rock Desert to create Black Rock City, a temporary metropolis dedicated to community and art.

Burning Man Art widely presents the diversity and the visual impact, including representation from a variety of categories, materials or ideas.

In these years, the Burning Man Art has leaned to environmental issues and in which trees occupied a significant position.

When people wander between the art installations on the playa, surprisingly they will find the trees in the vast desert.

As the characteristics of Burning Man art, those trees or forests are created in various materials, images, attributes and notions.

These trees not only generate the visual and spiritual context but also convey messages of the solicitude toward the environment and recall the intimate relationship between human and nature, and eventually inspire people to care about environmental sustainability.
