1000 Hands by: Nicholas DeBruyne & Maria Gotay with Wevolve Labs & Art Island
from: Austin, TX
year: 2023

This 50′ tall collective tapestry illustrating a world on fire stands as one of the largest & most vivid works at Burning Man, transforming shape by desert winds and participant interaction.

By day, the work depicts a fiery landscape, sparking reflection of our climate reality. At night, a serene scene illuminates in light, inspiring waking dreams of a hope-filled future.

Participants are able to swing from the base of the tapestry and experience the sensation of “the world on their shoulders,” witnessing the ripple effect of their actions displayed on a monumental scale.

As the name “1000 Hands” suggests, over 500 participants co-created this artwork, forming a community for whom the process was equally as important as the final product.
