Looking for a specific fire art piece...thingy
Looking for a specific fire art piece...thingy
I have looked all over.
It was large. The specific thing I remember is the spires of curved metal arranged semi circle to look like they were raising out of the playa. Big enough for a group of people to sit inside.
Fire would jet out of the tops of the spires at varying pressures and perfectly timed to make music. The people sitting inside the structure were directly under the fire, enjoying the heat and unique sounds and visuals.
Anyone have any pictures, or videos, or even the NAME of this piece so I can look it up? It was my favorite piece at BM 2009.

that looks a bit like it, but this was actually from 2009. the spires were solid, not with the cut out designs in it.Tiahaar wrote:Turnip you are exactly describing the Flaming Lotus Girls' 'Angel of the Apocalypse' of 2005...
It wasn't quite that large. The people sitting in the piece enjoying the fire and music sat on the ground, since standing up while the fire show was going would... probably kill you.

From my friend that saw it more times that I did in 2009:
"There was a flaming fish and there was like 7 things that shot fire it was all made of metal i was practically sitting on a propane tank i think it was a calliope thing
they moved them around because i remember walking past there other nights and they were set up diferently"
When he says he was sitting on a propane tank, he means that quite literally. Inside the circle of spires that the fire jetted out of, where the group of people sat while the fire went on above them, there was a propane tank sitting there. Assuming it was hooked up to all of them?
