Every year at the Burning Man festival in Nevada a Temple is built. The Temple is a place for people to express anger and loss as well as celebrate life through marriage. People meditate in its centre and it's surrounded by the out worldly atmosphere of the Burning Man festival. At the end of the week the Temple is burnt as people look on in silence and the catharsis is complete. These images are a document of a week at the Temple of Transition in 2011.
