Kurenivka is the first Ukrainian camp at Burning Man. Ukraine is very radical: we have gone through Chernobyl, we gave this planet its largest aircraft and two Klitschko brothers. It is important for us to introduce Ukraine as radically good. This means that we should dispense with references to our radical achievements, but don’t go unnoticed!
We have come from afar, and all our rituals have maximum radical force. We invite you to create a strong bond with our heroic ancestors who will protect you for the rest of your life!
