Burning Man 2016 is underway in the temporary city of Black Rock City, Nevada – meaning for one week, thousands of festival goers will romp through the desert taking pictures of the hundreds of art and architectural installations constructed for the event. This year's theme is "DaVinci's Workshop," inspiring sculptures based off the artist's famous inventions and artworks, including a large-scale interpretation of the Vitruvian Man on a circular frame.

Read on to see some of the best structures and installations found at Burning Man 2016.

This piece really speaks to me. At first glance it is just a bunch of 2x4's stuck in the ground but then, from the correct vantage point you realize that all of the markings perfectly line up with the mountains in the horizon. This works from four different angles and with just as many mountains. The complexity is astounding while it's simplicity is perfection. #burningman2016 #burningman #burningmanart #firstburn #firstburningman #art #artwork
