An Exclusive First Look At The Other-Worldly Art Of Burning Man 2014!!
The installations and the “art cars” roaming through the two-mile stretch of temporary city render humanity’s capacity for imagination limitless. Where else in the universe would a giant, fire-breathing steampunk octopus glide past a 55-foot tall, LED-powered homage to the female form?
The Huffington Post was lucky enough to preview a handful of the projects that will be on hand at this year’s event, which kicks off in mere weeks and is built around the theme “caravansary.” As artists scramble to put the finishing touches on their brainchildren and raise the final funds to bring their weirdest dreams to life, we’ve rounded up what will undoubtedly be some of the most influential works of Burning Man 2014.
From a giant, glowing vagina to a collection of mechanical lotus flowers that light up to the rhythm of your heartbeat, take a look at some of the bizarre creations that will grace the world's dustiest canvas this year
Embrace
Though enormous in scale, the piece is simple -- a 72-foot sculpture of two figures embracing.
But creator Matt Schultz hopes his work will convey a deeper message to
onlookers, one that was inspired by the loss he felt when his
stepfather passed away two years ago. “Embrace is a reminder to take the
time out of your busy life to spend time with those that you love,” he
told HuffPost. “We hope that people will think of all of the
relationships in their lives, past present and future, and consider what
has made them so important.”
The Super Pool
The Super Pool is a bigger and more badass version of the legendary Burning Man installation The Pool. For this new and improved iteration, sculptor Jen Lewin has created a 5,000 square foot immersive LED playground where participants can interact with circular pads of light through their own unique movements. “Imagine a giant canvas where you can paint and splash light collaboratively,” Lewin told HuffPost in a statement.
Minaret
Bryan Tedrick’s climbable psychedelic totem pole first debuted at
Burning Man in 2010, and he’s reprising it this year. “This lighthouse
of the desert draws people to it and naturally becomes a point to gather
and meet,” he explained, adding that the trip to the top is not for the
weak of mind or body. “The climb can be arduous, a gritty challenge
progressing from the coarse to fine, from the earth to the sky, from the
physical to the spirit.”
Wheel of Fortune
The all-female designed and produced installation
features a massive spinning wheel emblazoned with tarot card designs, a
gazebo area where spectators can relax and, of course, a chandelier
made of fire. And it’s all powered by solar energy, to boot. “It’s made
of salvaged and reclaimed materials and will also act as a large
compass, a place for personal reflection, card readings, high teas, and
insight,” project designer Jill Sutherland told HuffPost in a statement.
The Vulvatron
Who’s more fit to build a behemoth tribute to the female anatomy
than a group called the Clitterati? The 18-foot tall, LED-lit vagina
will also feature video projections of feminine forms and sensory
fabrics called the “erogenous zone.” “We’re delighted when the name
makes someone uncomfortable,” the Vulvatron’s lead designer, Rebecca
Frisch, told HuffPost in a statement. “We’re using this opportunity to
engage in conversation, and we’re eager to help each other explore our
triggers and push social boundaries imposed by our culture.”

Tattoo Artist Brings Dots And Lines To New Heights In Stunning Geometric Ink Designs!
By: Katherine Brooks
Imagine this scene:
Sharp waves stretch back for as far as you can see, eating up the horizon in a vast display of stunning movement. Like the peaks and troughs of a chaotic line graph, the seas capture jumping fish as they weave in and out of the thrashes. Careful shading separates the animal bodies as they surface, drenched in the bleeding red pigment of a sunset-flooded landscape.
The description might sound like a recounting of an ancient Japanese print or a sprawling painted canvas, but the words are actually attached to artwork of a different sort. They tell the story of artist Chaim Machlev and his gorgeous tattoos.
Machlev's inked masterpieces would seem at home
amidst the fractal imaginings of digital artists or the mind-bending creations
of the op art world. Crafting arm's length swirls and chest-sized 3D globes,
his tattoos throw traditional rosebuds and nautical anchors to the wind. Forget
calligraphic text and tribal bands, Machlev pines for geometric wonders that
destroy dimension and trick the eye.
Machlev's studio goes by the name "Dots to Lines,"
and though it's based in Berlin, Germany, his tattoos have been shown across
the web, thanks in part to his stunning
Instagram account. Check out a preview of the offerings below and head over
to the DTL website for more.
