THE MANS ARMY BURNING MAN SF FUNDRAISER
The Mans Army is an Honorarium Grant Recipient for Burning Man 2019. Please join us with some of our favorite musical acts, as we debut the new art installation and launch the fundraising effort. We want you to join The Mans Army! Technology will be onsite for you to have an image scanned and the chance to have your face on the playa! Please visit www.themansarmy.com
The Man's Army is a visual narrative for the Burning Man Experience. The installation opens with 100 life size human figures arranged in a 10x10 grid. The project draws the seed of its inspiration from the Terracotta Warriors of China. Each artisan put his face on a statue generating individualism in a sea of conformity.
At a distance, they all look the same but once among them you can see that they are individual. This is achieved with point-cloud scanning and 3D printing. Each figure’s face is made with a scan of a person’s face or a combination of the scans of a group of people.
Each body becomes a canvas, some prearranged for artists, others open for burners to transform. This reflects how we are vandalized, altered, and stretched by the thoughts and intentions of others; draw on them, spray paint them, add a camp necklace...
