The name of the project is Spiritual Carwash by Andrea Mildred Lenco and crew: A place to cleanse your soul plus Turkish Delight. This is a participatory art project at a regional Burning Man event. It is pretentious, derivative and lacking in whimsy, spontaneity and charm. It's a very half baked art project. It was better last year.

Less cheesy than the TED-ish head pieces I saw at Burning Man, more art-like and corporate, more prescriptive. Burning Man was always more business oriented than art-less.Barely there is a huge swath of waste being created at Burning Man—black paint, dirt, and other detritus—which adds to the idea of a place to cleanse your soul. It is a place where cleanliness is not merely an end in itself but something to be used as a tool for getting good results. It is not an art project but an art-used product. In addition to the recycled art items, the Burning Man Burning Man is a clean area that is expected to burn over time. The site is expected to be finished in 2019, although we can no longer expect to participate in it. It is a site that is more American than European.Burning Man also encourages people to participate in the art process—in the art, on the art, and in the art process. A person who takes on the responsibility to make a Burning Man masterpiece will also be rewarded with a spot in the festival that draws crowds to the site. So, too, people who make art can be put in the burning pile. Burning Man is a mixed bag of terms, one of which is Critique: Criticism is a criticism of the Burning Man art community. Critique is also a way of expressing feelings of anger at what the art community has done to the Burning Man culture. Burning Man Critique is a community expression of anger at the cultural industrys indifference to cultural diversity.Burning Man also has a wilderness aura. In this area, the wilderness area has been a sacred area for many years. In 1995, the Martyrs First Peace Church was burned by arsonists. In 2014, a group of young men went camping on a deserted island. Over the years, Burning Man has become a sacred site and site of Buddhist meditation.

It will be better this year.

Now, it just seems useless. Don't get me wrong, the art is good, but it's not cutting edge. How in the world can you be innovative and simultaneously perform well? At least one of these artists, Linda Dono, is looking for ideas.

This show was the latest installment in a recent series of productions by local artists. The series is made up of a series of individual works, each entitled Spiritual Carwash. During a three week period the participants will be able to cleanse themselves, if only to test their own powers of endurance. They are asked to gather in a chapel and discard their possessions, as well as any other worldly objects that might be of use to them. It would be difficult, for example, to describe the experience of cleaning yourself at an airport. The intensity of the ritual and its choral qualities is incredible. The work is not meant to be an art lesson, but a way to free oneself from the moralizing, negative, exploitative nature of civilization. The very work is forbidden.This series of art pieces is more than merely a study of art. The religious qualities of these pieces are greatly exaggerated and diluted by the ritual cleansing. At the same time, the ritual cleansing is at the same time the spiritual transformation of the subjects. In this show, the practice of rituals and the spiritual process both revolve around the same object: a passion. The Passion of Art is an integral part of the Burning Man ritual. It is an act of reverence and faith, not thought.The holy spirit of passion transforms one into a devotee, not only to the objects of the world, but to the spiritual world. It is the hope of the artist, not of the world, that creates the energy that sustains this passion. It is in the act of performing the Passion that the visions of illumination are realized. The burning out of this passion cannot be done by thought, but can be done by the body, by the body of the tormented, clinging body of the spirit.
