Temple of Flux The Temple of Flux was a large temporary art project created by The Flux Foundation for Burning Man 2010. The Temple was the tenth built at the festival and one of the largest. Built of white-washed wood, the design was notable for being highly abstract in nature, consisting of 5 landforms that described cave and canyon-like spaces (a reflection on the festival's theme of "Metropolis"). The piece was approximately 100'x200'x40'. Designed by Jess Hobbs, Rebecca Anders and PK (Peter Kimelman) it was built by a crew of 300 over a period of 4 months.
