Movement · Sound · Art
Reconnecting people with their creative power, communities, and the living world. A collective of artists, architects, engineers and builders making immersive public art in bamboo.
Debuted at Burning Man 2026
The Resonance Tree
Resonance transforms bamboo, light, wind, sound, and human imagination into a shared ritual experience. The Tree is its first phase: a climbable sanctuary of ninety-six bamboo poles under a canopy of warm solar light, prefabricated across two continents and raised by volunteer crews at Burning Man 2026.
Phase 2 · 2027
The Resonance Conch
In 2027, every pole, every weave, and every lesson becomes part of the Resonance Conch: a three-story bamboo queen conch shell woven from the bones of the Tree, in design now and seeking its site.
See the ProjectArt moves people. It doesn't have to cost the earth.
Great art connects us. We build ours to give back, with reused and repurposed materials, renewable bamboo, and designs made to be rebuilt, not thrown away.
Impact
What the work does
Public engagement
Thousands of visitors interact physically with the structure. Architecture becomes participatory rather than observational. Shared ritual experiences foster connection, reflection, and collective presence.
Artist support
Establishes a collaborative platform for artists working at architectural scale. Provides infrastructure for funding, fabrication, and touring large-scale works. Creates pathways for artists to realize public installations.
Regenerative design
Showcases bamboo as a renewable material for large-scale public structures. Expands public awareness of regenerative building practices. Integrates ecological materials, art, and community experience into immersive environments.
Black Rock City at sunset — the ground our first structure stood on.
Our Story
How the collective formed
Born from a shared immersion in bamboo architecture at Bamboo U, and a vision of the conch shell during a sound healing at Burning Man, the collective reunited to build public art where structure, light, and movement meet.
The spaces we build shape the way we feel, the way we connect, and the way we remember who we are.

Build with us
The engineering, logistics and crew that raised the Tree work as a design-build practice too — for festivals, venues, and other people's art. That work funds the collective's own installations.
