The Cosmic Egg

2017

Installation at The Burning Man-festival
(Collaborative work)

Concept: Jukka-Pekka Heikkilä, Anssi Laurila, Jami Sarnikorpi & co
Architecture: Lunden Architecture
Lighting design: Ville Hyvönen

Project included over 40 volunteers.

We wanted to build a space in Burning Man-festival, where one could contemplate oneself as a tiny speck in the vast universe. Our aim was to offer an experience combined with chilling out and realising the ever expanding space around us. With Jani Hietanen we produced an 8-speaker sound installation inside the pavilion. It was 1h20min long and we combined it with Finnish nature recordings and electronic sounds. It took us 10 days to built The Cosmic Egg and we kept it open for four days before burning it down.
