Remember the Angel of the Apocalypse? The Serpent Mother? The fire gardens ? The Hand of God (it is the picture for this tribe)?

Well this year we are making Mutopia. Yet another huge and over the top fire and metal art piece with electronics incorporated and some steam in there too. Oh and we are doing some Aluminium casting as well. Pick what you are interested in.

This is a short film of FLG and Mutopia in it's prototype phase that was shown at Maker Faire. flaminglotus.wordpress.com/2008...tion/

We have done a lot of work since then and there is still a lot to do.

The FLG is a mainly female art group. You dont need to have any prior metal working skills as we can show you how to use the equipment. We want you if you are enthusiatic, want to learn new and cool skills, it would be great if you have skills (electronics / metal / tea making / casting) but you shouldn't feel worried about not knowing how to use the tools and equipment.

We welcome women and men from all working backgrounds, abilities.

Production is ramping up and we are only just over a month away from loading it all on a trailer to the burn. You know you want to be part of the busiest all night HOT art pieces on the playa. Point out the bits you welded and grinded on yourself then show your friends where the buttons are for the fire.

We have a weekly meeting for the project on Wed around 7pm at The Boxshop, Hunterspoint, San Fran. We are not just working on a Wednesday though. We will be there every evening and every weekend between now and the point it put on the truck.

If you contact us before coming out to the workshop we may be able to arrange a ride share.

Love and firey kisses from Flaming Lotus Girls - Come join us. xxx
