You may have seen some of the famous Burning Man installations even show up at massives that you\’ve attended, like EDC Las Vegas. That\’s because these pieces are traveling works of art, and they return to Nevada every year, with new installations joining the family.
Andrew Jorgensen, one of the scene\’s most highly sought after photographers, hit the Playa this year to get all dusty for The Confluence. Based out of San Diego, Jorgensen has been shooting music festivals in this corner of the country for a decade, capturing some of the most high quality photos at West coast favorites like Lightning in a Bottle and Coachella. And, boy, does this guy have an eye for capturing the living experience.
We\’ve gathered some of our top favorites for your viewing pleasure. Take a look and tell us what you think!
