Fishbon at the 2006 San Francisco Fire Arts Exposition

Fishbon showed four fire sculptures (the most of any artist in the festival) at the Candlestick Park (now Monster) venue of the Burning Man-sponsored Art on Fire fiesta. The three-day event (May 18,19 and 20) featured large and small scale works from all over the Western region along with a sizable contingent of talented fire dancers, musicians, and urban circus performers. Developed in the Fishbon Event Lab by Alan and with the collaboration of undercover Event Lab operatives, the pieces have also recently travelled to San Diego's Xara Dulzura and Los Angeles' Space Island. All were recognized by attendees as uniquely interactive and elegant alternatives to "big blast" fire columns that have been a hallmark of these events since their inception.
