Burning Man is a week-long gathering devoted to art, creativity and self-expression. It’s held each summer in Nevada’s Black Rock Desert. The event is difficult to describe. It’s not quite an art festival, not quite a desert rave, and not quite a social experiment, but something of all three.
I’ve been documenting Burning Man for many years, covering the event on assignment for Rolling Stone, Forbes, CNN and other media outlets. My work has appeared in numerous books, magazines and newspapers.
My photos are featured in the book Burning Man: Art on Fire, a collaboration with Jennifer Raiser and Sidney Erthal. A newly revised and expanded edition with more than 200 of my images is out now. It won two Indie Book Awards last summer, including “Best Coffee Table Book of the Year.”
You’ll find a selection of annual photo galleries below. For more about the project, check out a talk I gave at the de Young Museum in San Francisco, or read some of the press and interviews at the bottom of this page. Thank you for visiting.
