The YouTruvian

Inspired by DaVinci's Vitruvian Man - a famous drawing which depicts the "ideal man", The YouTruvian allowed anyone to "become" this ideal.

Culture at large is obsessed with ideals of beauty and perfection. Burning Man ethos eschews these ideals in its very value system. Ironically, Davinci's drawing was based on classical (and western) concepts of geometry and architecture. We wished to playfully implode this construct by decrying the very notion of "a perfect man" and instead declaring to our Burner community, "we are ALL perfect… perfect by virtue of our imperfections, our nuances, our very differences." We invited fellow Burners to to inhabit the Vitruvian Man and make it theirs (thus it's title, YouTruvian).
