After thousands of people were stranded for days in foot-deep mud because of heavy rains at Burning Man, the annual event has come to an end.
About 73,000 people attended the event this year at Nevada’s Black Rock Desert, which featured a variety of different art forms, including sculptures and installations.
Burning Man started in 1986 when founders Larry Harvey and Jerry James burned a human-shaped sculpture at Baker Beach in San Francisco. During the 1990s, the event grew in popularity and was moved to the Black Rock Desert in Nevada where it has taken place ever since.
From a bear sculpture covered in old pennies to a giant, rolling bull that shot flames out of its horns, here are the best photos of the art that was display at Burning Man this year:
