The Burning Man escapade for nature lovers, Green Man Festival 2015 saw an abundance of involvement, art, music and creative expression. The following pictures show just how!
As we told you last week, Green Man is truly a festival that paints an inclusive picture – inviting families, liberated free-thinkers, artists, creative expressionists with equal energy, and delivers the best kind of experience to each of these highly distinctive groups! This year too, this British festival held at Brecon Beacons at South Wales brought together these unique communities of revelers in a spirit of liberal celebration. The pictures coming in are proof to just how surreal and aspirational the 2015 run of the festival, that concluded only yesterday, was.
1. The festival of Green Man, like its American counterpart centres around the prominent Green Man structure, a tall built resembling a man, made from leaves and twigs, that is burnt later to commemorate the festival’s end. The 2015 Green Man formation signified every bit the festival’s earthy upbringing.

3. Considering how Green Man fosters thought and conversation, one can almost catch the glaring metaphor behind the largeness of the structure; at its ability to look at and protect its revelers, puny in comparison.
