Get Luis Varela-Rico to Burning Man!

Donation protected
Hello! My name is Luis Varela-Rico and I was just notified that my proposal for Burning Man 2024 has been accepted!! This is fantastic news! I am absolutely ready to make this happen and I'm going to need all the help I can get!


In the past I've worked with other artist teams to help them create their works, this is my chance to bring my perspective to Burning Man. What is the piece? Organic Study Number 4!

Organic Study No. 4 is a large-scale steel sculpture that is a clear celebration of Mexican culture. It draws inspiration from Dia de Los Muertos, the catholic church, and colonialism. It includes an upside down cross in the archway. It acknowledges the history of colonization and its negative impact on the global community. OS No. 4 challenges the status quo and makes an argument that we don't need to subscribe to dogmatic belief systems to accept each other. The piece uses historical and cultural references to remind people how beautiful we can be if we base our behavior from a place of love instead of greed or fear.





This is a small-scale version of OS No. 4.
