About
Correfoc is a freestanding sculptural installation approximately 26 feet tall, conceived as a stylized human silhouette inspired by Mediterranean fire rituals. Built in wood and finished in a vibrant red tone, the piece stands as a striking landmark in the desert landscape. At night, subtle lighting enhances its silhouette and amplifies the presence of surrounding fire performances. The work explores the human silhouette as an ancestral symbol, where fire, ritual, and collective movement converge into a shared, ephemeral presence. Correfoc is envisioned as a daily gathering point for the fire dancers of Burning Man. During a special event, a traditional fire dance will unfold around the sculpture prior to its burning, linking Mediterranean traditions with the transformative culture of Burning Man.
