Do you know her? Why not write her a letter and ask her if she knows about BM and if she'd ever thought of participating?

Hell, even if you don't know her you can write her a letter and give her a link to the BM art page.

Very nice work, I wonder how she would feel about burning it at the end of the week.

They were created by artist Heather Jansch, whose individual works take up to three years to produce and fetch up to £55,000
That's over $100,000. I'm guessing that she's a different kind of artist. She might like to come, but I feel like she has a successful art career and while that doesn't preclude participating, that that is not what the burn is about. YMMV.

I didn't think it was a prerequisite to have to burn your art at the close of the event. I thought many have appeared at BM more than once and some have even ended up in permanent exhibits with museums and cities, no?

Not to mention that some are made out of metal, which, generally speaking, doesn't burn very well at all.

True. I was answering that question, not the one about going to burningman.

My suggestion to send the link was quite earnest.

My inquiry about the burnability of her art was not. Sheesh! Why does Fiishy always take me seriously?

Hey, someone get those horses some water! They look pretty dehydrated.
