Burning Man really does change you. I don’t know if it’s the magic or just the crazy amount of life you experience there. Some things are impossible to put into words. You just have to live them. And I guess you can’t go through something like that and come back the same person.

I remember saying back in 2018 that one day I’d make it here. So happy to see my dreams coming true 🤍 #burningman2026

Burning Man 2026

After spending 10 days in the desert, I decided to take a break from BM. I’m selling my bike, my camping gear, outfits. Do you believe me?

Ask me again in 7 months or so…

Life is crazy so you never know.

SOMNIUM EVIGALIT — VIDEO MAPPING
The Dream of a Thousand Faces

Every body is a device that can be activated through light.

Within this line of ideas, which allude to consciousness, I approached Sueño through a video mapping intervention. The sculpture itself has a figurative nature and carries a strong symbolic charge.

In my interpretation, I have titled this piece Somnium Evigalit — The Dream of a Thousand Faces.

The work unfolds as an act of transformation. Its narrative emerges from the roots, the mycelium, and the earth. As it progresses, it encounters an ethereal body: the sculpture gradually transforms into a spiritual body—one we might aspire to inhabit when we are willing to embrace all of our faces, all of our facets, and through them, find balance.

Creating this video mapping piece led me to reflect on and reconnect with my personal research into the §erpent Goddess, a figure often associated with transition and transformation.

Thank you to @pinkcactusproductions for inviting me to intervene in this beautiful sculpture by @theartrising.
It was a true pleasure to bring Sueño to life through light.

And thank you to everyone who made the technical installation possible. Through rain that seemed as though it would never end, the sculpture finally came to light during this incredible gathering by @omya.comminity

First week was the typical oven, second week turned into ski season. Regardless, the art was impressive again, against the never-ending backdrop of white desert sand. Everything brought in and set up by passionate strangers, to be enjoyed by so many.

What a gift.

MUNDARA II _________________________________________________________ « Mundara is a large figurative piece in a full backbend, her arm and leg outstretched creates a rainbow.
Her backbend creates an arc between earth and sky, turning the human body into a bridge, a gateway, a horizon. The rainbow arc suggests transcendence, but also connection: the joining of opposites - masculine and feminine, human and nature, matter and spirit.
Visitors can ascend, from the earth rising into her head - a movement from survival into awareness, from the material world into higher consciousness. From her head they can ascend to her heart - ascending into infinite love. The sculpture becomes more than an object to observe; it becomes a journey.
Mundi means World and Dara means the sustainer.
Mundara is « She who holds the world.» @theartrising

no words will ever be enough for this one. burning man is a wake up call. the realest people, the most insane energy, pure love everywhere. this year i surrendered and the playa healed the wounds last year’s burn left me. it showed me how fking strong i am, opened my heart and reminded me how life is supposed to feel. it pushed me out of my comfort zone and taught me to be comfortable with the uncomfortable. still in the magic ✨

pics don’t do it justice 😹

to my friends and every beautiful soul i met out there, none of this would’ve been the same without you.
gracias playa sagrada 💛

From my studio in Corsica to the Nevada desert
and finally, into the flames.
Some works are made to last. This one was born to burn. 🔥

Every work emerges from a feeling, a moment, a story that leaved a mark. This piece was born from an emotion. It speaks about passion, imperfection, vulnerability , time, transformation and ultimately detachment.

Inspired by Wabi-Sabi and Kintsugi, I am drawn to the beauty of things that are not permanent, not perfect, not untouched.
Gold, cracks, texture, the human silhouette, all the elements that have become part of my visual language are there and this piece naturally found its way to Burning Man.

A place where art exists everywhere, in the middle of the desert, surrounded by dust, fire, freedom and thousands of temporary stories. At Burning Man, art is not simply something to look at. It becomes something to experience.

After travelling all the way from my studio in Corsica to the Nevada desert, it became part of that extraordinary landscape for a few days. And then came the fire. Not as an ending. But as a transformation. Because we are not here to hold on to everything. We are here to experience, to feel, to transform and to let go.

Every emotion has its moment.Every moment leaves something behind. And sometimes, in order to become something new, something has to disappear.

The painting was born from an emotion. It lived in the desert.
It became part of a collective experience. And finally, it returned to the fire. Its physical form is gone. But the story remains.

Special thanks to Fabien and Salomé for taking a piece of my artistic universe with them on their Burning Man adventure, and for allowing this work to live such an extraordinary and unexpected chapter @burningman 2026.
