The Vision
Carousels have a long history of bringing together people of all ages to enjoy a step into the imagination, the playfulness, and the joy of riding carefully crafted creatures in motion.
The Flaming Carousel is the culmination of 20 years of experience with interactive and flaming sculptures by multiple artists. Jessica Marshall led an effort to gather and inspire artists to join the project.
The Flaming Carousel’s vision is to re-imagine the classic carousel with an Art Deco vibe and flaming ceiling. It is intended to be a platform for other artists to express their creativity in creating creatures that are part of their aesthetic.
The Flaming Carousel prototype was first witnessed at The Love Burn (2025). This isn’t just a carousel; it’s a rideable art piece that reinterprets the traditional with a unique twist: Gothic architecture, an Art Deco vibe, mythical handmade creatures created by various artists, and a whole lot of fire!
The Flaming Carousel is a testament to ingenuity and artistic collaboration. This intricate masterpiece first appeared at Miami for The Love Burn, where its creators and the world saw the finished installation in all its fiery glory. With mythical creatures, blazing elements, and heart-pounding motion, this is more than just a ride — it’s a fiery story waiting to unfold.
