Nurturing healing-centered art,
and the communities that grow with it.

Soul Garden Art Foundation is a registered nonprofit (EIN 33-2756951) dedicated to building community and connection through large-scale, healing-centered art. We believe in the power of immersive and unconventional art to spark reflection, transformation, and joy. We support artists who blur the lines between sculpture, performance, and communal ritual—especially those working with care, vulnerability, and play.Our mission is to grow a network of creators committed to meaningful public works—from Burning Man to city parks. Through fiscal sponsorship, resource sharing, and collaborative support, we help bold visions take root.

What We're Growing

Founded in spring 2025, Soul Garden Art Foundation is nurturing its first two projects—both set to bloom at Burning Man 2025, and rooted in care, community, and transformation.

Burning Man 2025

Our Ouroboros

An interactive, climbable, touch-sensitive inflatable sculpture for Burning Man 2025. Inspired by the symbol of the snake eating its own tail, Ouroboros explores cycles of renewal, connection, and shared energy. The structure responds to human touch with flowing light and ambient sound, creating moments of co-created magic. We’re currently in production, with support from NYLoA, Portal Burn 2025.

Illumnation Village 2025

To Whom It May Heal

An interactive sculpture that holds whispered messages—anonymous voice notes left by others—inside a shell-like form.
Participants lean in, listen closely, and feel gently witnessed by strangers they've never met.
It offers a soft space for reflection, where intimacy arises not through conversation, but through resonance.
Currently in production by Youtian Duan, will be installed at Illumination Village, Burning Man 2025, with support from Illumination Village 2025.

Soul Graden Art Support Camp

Soul Garden is an art support camp rooted in creativity, healing, and community.
We help bring visionary art to life, but with shared purpose and belief. As an experimental collective, we plant seeds of art, bridge cultures and senses, and explore the spiritual dimensions of co-creation.
This year, we are proud to be one of the official camps within The Illumination Village—a legendary Burning Man art hub with a 30-year legacy. Alongside 20+ creative camps, we work to light up the Playa, and with it, the soul of the desert.

Future Bloom

Soul Garden is growing into a constellation of creative sanctuaries, spaces where healing, art, and community.
We support artists through tools, gatherings, and gentle funding that nurture heart-led expression. This journey is slow and intentional, and we invite you to grow alongside us.

Meet The Team

The souls behind the garden—dreamers, builders, and quiet firekeepers growing something beautiful together.
We came together as strangers and became a team through the chaos, beauty, and sunrise moments of the Playa.
Ouroboros is our gesture of gratitude, born of wonder and built through resilience and connection.
It reflects the harmony we seek between the physical and the spiritual, the personal and the collective.

Thank you for being here.

Soul Garden lives because people like you believe in spaces where healing doesn’t have to be loud to be heard. This space lives and breathes through your support—whether it’s through donations, kind words, or simply holding space. It helps us keep creating spaces for healing and resonance.🌱 See you in the dust.
