The Serpent Mother is apocalyptic, and beautiful.
Her metal skeleton stretches 168′ long, and she breathes fire. Her entire being is shot through with propane, which erupts into flame at forty-one distinct spots along her spine. The flames are controlled by audience participants. So is the hydraulic head, and jaws.
It was first seen at Burning Man. This is not at all surprising, for an art-fueled festival of bohemian debauchery held annually in the middle of the desert. A shared love of fire, too, made it a match made in heaven. But the Serpent Mother has bigger plans: a world tour.
The Flaming Lotus Girls - the creators of the Serpent Mother - are raising funds. One of their methods is to sell calendars, displaying both the men and women metalworkers posing sexily, while wielding arc welders and sledgehammers.
