2012 Burning Man

I could not ask for a better experience being involved with Fractal Nation - Burning Man 2012. Fractal Nation was outstanding in preparing the location and making installation and breakdown easy. NOTE: This is Burning Man. We had some challenging weather. The camp was seriously entertaining and accommodating. I feel grateful for the opportunity to participant and publicly debut "American History 2000 - 2012" at Fractal Nation.

Seeing the panels side by side in chronological order was a powerful experience for me personally. NOTE: It spans sixty feet. Each Panel is multi layered. The more you look the more you see. It's interesting to notice what are the first layers you respond to when you first view it.

I really enjoyed watching people experience it. From a distance it looks Americana, whimsical, colorful. As you get closer people recognize images and words. This project invokes memory and conversation. People remember where they were and whom they were with when key events happened. They talk about how our current U.S. history has influenced their lives. It’s powerful to witness. The response I hear is “Thank You”.
