Maya for pulsating sky… At its apex the structure will stand 14ft tall and will have a footprint of 12 square feet. The ground floor base of the structure will be handicap accessible and will house a cuddle nest, replicas of Maya friezes, and traditional flags from El Dia De Los Muertos, or the Mexican Day of the Dead. The entrance of the structure will have a traditional monster mouth doorway, which Mayan’s believed to be a portal to the afterlife.
الحب انفجار الفرح ( Ainfijar Alhabi Alfarah ) by Scho
Exploding with joy or bursting with anger, however you define this projects’ reaction to your shouting, your chastising, your ridiculing, your sweet talk, or your lervvvv, it may indeed both bewilder and entertain…at least until the propane tanks need changing.
Alien Pleasure House by Bardia
Meet an Alien, get close to it, sit in it and start talking to it. You will find out your mission is to give it pleasure. It will guide you with questions and answers to take you from being a stranger to an intimate person. The definition of pleasure is very broad and in most cases PG rated.
Consent Fairy by Eyrie Sam (aka Same)
Art can challenge us to think differently about things we take for granted. My art is to engage people in conversations about touch consent, especially but not limited to costume consent, as well as conversations about sexual health and disability/ableism.

Nexus by Aubrey & Rainy
Nexus is a wooden, lasercut jigsaw puzzle whose hexagonal pieces will be distributed to participants on necklaces. Each piece of Nexus is designed so that it potentially fits with many other pieces. The result is trillions of possible 7-piece hexagonal grids of complete image-sentences.
Giant Rideable Unicorn by
Doug ‘Nataraj’ Shire and Laurence ‘Radar’ Clarkberg
To me, a unicorn represents magic, wonder, and childhood (and adult!) fantasy. What better symbol, then, to make an art vehicle out of. We wanted to create something so awesome that it would stop people dead in their tracks and make them go, whoa! I would say we have met that goal and then some, and we debuted our art at PDF 2019, so you may have seen it there. There are several modes of interaction with the piece. It is covered in reversible sequins that you can ‘draw’ on by flipping them over (a daytime activity), and you can either pedal the two-person art bike on bottom, or you can ride on top in the saddle (up to two adults). While in the saddle, you can operate the head of the unicorn to make “Sparky” gesture by pulling on the reins.

10 Principles Windmill by Forest Fire & Balance
We have already built the majority of what we wanted – it was partially funded by Portal Burn. However, there is still room for improvement. We would like to request funding to add lighting and a few parts to do a better job catching the wind.

Nighttime Oasis by flutterbi
The music has been loud for days. You walk and spot some dim lights in the distance. As you approach, you begin to hear soothing sounds. You see an odd bench. You decide to take a seat and ease into the experience. From this angle you can comfortably see these Constellations. You feel relaxed.
The Tiger Temple by David Nghiem
The Tiger Temple is the result of four years of research into Vietnam’s now extinct animist cultures and folklore. It’s a resurrection of an ancient artifact, rituals, practices, and beliefs that are extinct due to Socialist forces during the Cold War era.
