“The Flaming Lotus Girls (FLG) are a female-driven group of artists formed in 2000 to create our first sculpture, the Flaming Lotus. Our sculptures are composed of steel , stainless steel, copper, glass, wood, light, and fire. Our flames blaze in sizes ranging from 2 inches to 150+ feet.” The above Serpent Mother sculpture shown above is over 150 feet long. Each of her 40 spinal fire spouts can shoot 20 feet of flame. The fire eruptions and head movements correspond to ribs touched and pushed by participants. (Source: Flaming Lotus and Images via Caroline Miller, Anne Rey and Serpent Head by Tristan Savatier).
