Here is a statement at Burning Man Journal: The time has arrived to reveal the theme for 2023: ANIMALIA.
The
Black Rock Desert can appear at first glance to be lifeless — other
than, of course, the silly humans who build a city there every summer —
but this is far from the truth. Anyone familiar with the high desert
knows that even out on a dry lakebed, the skies carry soaring ravens and
buzzing insects, the fairy shrimp slumber below ground waiting for
rain, and countless other species roam the transition zones where the
playa edges into scrub and wetlands.

But all that life pales in comparison to the endless menagerie of imagined animals we bring with us every time we come to Burning Man.
This year’s Burning Man theme will celebrate the animal world and our place in it—animals real and imagined, mythic and remembered—and explore the curious mental constructs that allow us to believe that imagined animals are real, real animals are imagined, and that somehow, despite all evidence to the contrary, mankind is somehow not part of the animal kingdom.
Animals that speak and act like humans inhabit a throughline in our collective mythology, from ancient myths and fairy tales to modern television. From the not-so-distant past, when the lines between men and animals and gods were not at all as certain as they may seem today, we inherit a body of fabulous characters like the wily talking hare Adanko of the Akan people, who survives in modern lore as the hero Bre’r Rabbit.
