Support Colombian Artists in Burning Man

Hola! We are Silvia, Ana and Lina. We are part of the Understory collective and we are working on our first honoraria project for black rock city called Nebula Shroom Grove.

Nebula is an art installation formed by multiple modules designed parametrically. This idea came from our own experience at black rock city and our dream to create interactive art capable of fostering community. So, we designed a structure that offers shadow, a place to unwind during the day and a space to get curious at night.

When creating Nebula we wanted to highlight our heritage as Colombian artists by combining shapes from nature and artesian traditions. So we took inspiration from Colombia’s rain forest and artesian techniques to create a world of giant mushrooms.

We have been working on this idea for a few years and this year we were honoured to receive an honorary grant from Burning Man. However, that's only going to cover a fraction of the cost, so we are reaching out to get your help and with your contribution, we would be able to propagate more mushrooms and make our Nebula forest even more magical.

You can help grow Nebula by donating any amount in our Gofundme campaign and giving us a follow in our social media channels @understorybm where we will posting about our process and talking about other ways you can contribute.

Please share this with your friends, we need all the help we can get! Thank you so much!
