Description

Over the course of a week in late summer 2011 Peter made a collection of photographs at the Burning Man Festival in Nevada. The Burning Man is an amazing place to take photos. 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 ones on its walls and meditate in its centre. They grieve. They marry. They party. The festival’s 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 document of a week at the Temple which seeks to share the narrative behind its construct, its being and its ultimate destruction.

108 pages, Hard Back with Dust Cover.
