About

The essence of youth and nostalgia of past carousels draws people back to the fun and familiar. Participants ride around on different types of creatures from the imaginations of different artists with rolling flames above the participants' heads, bringing joy to those who ride and those who watch. The Flaming Carousel is a reworking of the classic carousel and revives the building of creatures with new materials from the imaginations of different artists from around the world. It is both a sculpture and a platform for other artists to explore the medium.
