Peter Gordon – Life & Death:The temple

Located in the starkly beautiful setting of the Black Rock Desert, the Burning Man festival attracts some of the most interesting and extraordinary people, art and activities you are ever likely to find in one place.

Located in the starkly beautiful setting of the Black Rock Desert, the Burning Man festival attracts some of the most interesting and extraordinary people, art and activities you are ever likely to find in one place. Burning Man transcends traditional interpretations of what a festival is. It has its own identity, its own peculiar and astounding nuances. It represents more than just a week in the desert: It represents a way of life. A central feature of the festival is the building and burning of a temple.

The Temple in many ways is the spiritual hub of the festival. People visit and write messages for departed loved one’s on its walls and meditate in its centre. They grieve. They marry. They party. The festivals climax see’s the Temple being burnt
and with it the grief that people have shared within its walls. These Burning Man photos are a documentary in pictures of a week at the Temple that share the narrative behind its construct, its being and its ultimate destruction..

Zoe Vassiliou; Between the magical and the mundane

My photographs are staged narratives in which I scout for locations, dress my friends and family, then photograph them in a manner that refutes reality. I am always chasing ethereal beauty, creating it if it isn’t there, and I like the tension between the magical and the mundane. I use costumes, light, color, movement, and reflective effects for a surreal and metaphysical quality.
