Burning Man – USA

This is an annual event that takes place in the Black Rock Desert of Nevada, USA. The meaning can be interpreted by each participant, but generally, it means the act of radically expressing oneself. 

People who attend the festival stay for days in a communal space, participating in collective efforts to look after the space and each other. At the end of the event, a giant wooden sculpture of a man is burned, which originates the name of this festival.
