Now that the dust has settled, I’m excited to share the experience of installing Varanasi Sage at Burning Man. From concept to installation, the entire project took one year, and what a year!
I went through my own metamorphoses during this experience. Doing everything for the first time, the processes of building, funding, and installing taught me like no other teacher. I found great rewards in the process: I felt supported in my art, I felt my art was received, I connected with people in new ways, and continually encountered the best of humanity.
A hidden gift in the process was creating the Varanasi Sage companion booklet, which I didn’t know was going to manifest until a few months before the installation was complete. This booklet is a culmination of my writing over the past several years, and something I desired for a long time, but needed the framework of the Varanasi Sage installation to create. I will offer the companion booklet as an e-book and audio book soon! Stay tuned!

Chelsea you have produced an extremely thoughtful Varanasi presentation from the conception to this wrap up of your 2019 Burning Man experience. This feels like a new beginning for you, as your point is to acknowledge and appreciate each and every day for what it is, a new beginning of ones self through the blessings of creation. May you continue to have the courage to sustain and grow throughout your lifetime of encounters.
With love, Dad
