South Africa’s Burner event, AfrikaBurn, will returnย for its 2016 edition on April 25 to Tankwa Karoo!

A key feature of all Burning Man events has been the artwork, submitted by various artists all around the world. It has been an integral part of the massive cultural event since its inception, and the works have only become bigger, better and more colourful!

The Sherp has picked a few artworks that have graced AfrikaBurn over the years.
