Bliss

IMG_3939Here’s one of the most popular art installations that came out this year by Marco Cochrane.  It had everyone buzzing. “Have you seen Bliss?”  “You gotta go checkout Bliss.” This is what makes Burning Man so special–at least for me. You’re not going to see such amazing work concentrated within a mile diameter.

I pulled this description from the Burning Man website.

Bliss Dance is a unique steel sculpture utilizing cutting edge design; an unabashedly breathtaking modern sculpture in structure and balance. She celebrates humanity and shows the feminine beauty, power and strength that emerges when women are safe and free to be themselves. Standing 40 feet tall, she is dancing naked with her eyes closed; a sign that the spirit of the community is healthy and the balance between male and female is present.IMG_4038

Here’s a picture of her backside at night.
