“LOVE” by Ukrainian artist Alexander Milov.
Burning Man 2015. First time a Ukrainian artist received an art grant from burning man.
Alexander had a difficult time bringing this piece from the other side of the world. Customs made him late. And he worked tirelessly to finish it a few days before the festival ended. It is my favorite art piece I’ve seen out there. At night, the children inside light up.

so proud! congrats to one of our partners Jiaren Cafe for making this esteemed Eater list! their mission, drinks, snacks, and baristas are full of heart and soul!! 🍵✨❤️
