taBURNak! 8
TaBURNak! the Montreal burner decompression party, is one of those events where we get to come together with a community that we love.
We love all the events that I do, but the Montreal burner scene in particular is one where I get to spend time with people that are truly family.
This year’s event was a total success. Three of my domes were present and each of them was utilized in an incredibly different way.
The Dusty Beavers were present with their dome that they had bought for Burning Man this last year. It was so nice to see one of our Montreal theme camps show up with their installation. They did an experiential space where the participants could enter and experience different sensory activities.
Artist Kendall Malichuk took one of the domes and turned it into an underwater cuddle puddle. You had to crawl into the low cozy space filled with waving seaweed and cozy cushions. The place was packed all night long.
Artist John Lanthier filled yet another dome with dozens and dozens of his hand-drawn hyper-doodlings. The artist collective Eden Creative then activated the space with face painting throughout the evening.
All in all, it was wonderful to see how my domes were used in such different ways throughout the space. They really created containers that each team could take in their own direction.
Thanks again to the wonderful Montreal community for letting us be part of your expression! May we have many more years together to come.
