BURNINGMAX ART
ALL PROJECTS TIMELINE
A timeline presentation of all projects by Burningmax.
More than 30 years on a creative path, and many projects that deserve to be remembered, before time cancels everything. I just needed to put them in order, and the easiest way to explore them is the chronological way. Enjoy.
Time goes pretty fast,
ideas go even faster.
Check out the timeline.
