Fire Ball #1

How does one keep thousands of festival goers warm and happy? Ivan’s Fire Balls have kept the frost off attendees of the Portland Winter Light Festival for years now and will be a gathering point for folks to warm up, gather and listen to each other.

These were originally built for “What The Festival,” as gathering and warming centers. Ivan makes mostly nonfunctional things these days.

Ivan has been creating furniture and sculpture since the age of the dinosaurs with all kinds of materials and intentions for public and private spaces around the country.
