Flaming Lotus Girls is a volunteer-based group of artists who make large-scale kinetic fire art. FLG has been described as a "women-focused anarchist art collective."[1] The group began in 2000, in San Francisco, California, as a group of six women and two men who wanted to gain the fabrication and design experience needed to create large sculptural installations.[2] The group includes over a hundred members of all genders, and a majority of the members are women.[3] Many of the sculptures have interactive elements, allowing the audience to control the lighting, flames, sound, or other effects.[4] The collective's work has appeared throughout the United States, as well as in Canada, Australia, and the Netherlands.[5]
