Anne-Marie Goco, Day 2
As I write this, Burning Man has already started. However, my wear-a-thon has already been going on for over a week. This photo was taken the day after the artists arrived. All the massive art pieces come in a few days before the event, to start setting up. Once that starts, the crew loves to go out on “art tours” to see what’s being erected.
This piece is called the Spire of Fire. It’s a 41-foot steel tower that explodes into flame, created by “Propaniac”.
On the night this photo was taken, there was a full moon rise directly after sunset. The dress is folded down to make a skirt, leaving the sleeves hanging to add shape. I added a satin chemise for an elegant evening look, perfect for the warm night.
Once you find a good pair of shoes out here, you wear them constantly. I’ve got two pairs of boots: they’re dusty as hell, but they get me around.
