In case you missed Weekend One, we wanted to fill you in on some of the art installed especially for this year's festival. Massive sculptures decorated the Polo Fields, and we have to say, it was pretty impressive.

Of course, you know about that hologram. So, here's the rest of the best in Coachella art.

Check out The 10 Coolest Art Installations At Coachella.

TRASHed

Artists: Various

Founded in 2004, TRASHed was created in order to encourage festival goers to recycle by using cool trashcans designed by local artists.

Untitled

Artist: Unknown

Located in between the Mojave and Sahara tents, this piece is definitely worth checking out. Kind of makes us think Kanye is lurking just around the corner.

Garraplata

Artist: Christian Ristow (Taos, New Mexico)

Giant stainless steel flame throwing lobster. Enough said.

Solitary Inflorescence

Artist: Poetic Kinetics (Los Angeles, California)

This enormous flower rises above the crowds and dances in the sky. Camera men could sometimes be found in the petals videotaping moments of the festival.

Untitled

Artist: Unknown

The perfect place to relax in between sets and eat a burger. Even the chill spots at Coachella have dope installations.

Balloon Chain

Artist: Robert Bose (New York, New York)

This floating sculpture twists and turns with the Coachella breeze.

Gateway

Artist: Sensory Sync (Los Angeles, California)

This piece combines 3D projection mapping with architectural design, giving the viewer a multi-sensory experience. Pretty trippy.

The Do LaB

Artist: The Do LaB (Los Angeles, California)

The Do LaB brought their expertise in lighting and interactive environments to Coachella. Misters decorate the artwork and performers are integrated into the pieces. Everyone gets a little funky over here.

WAVE

Artist: Charles Gadeken (San Francisco, California)

Featuring high amplitude transverse waves, WAVE breathes fire at its peak and creates mesmerizing illusions as it lights up the night sky. This sculpture fit perfectly outside of its Sahara tent location.

Starry Bamboo

Artist: Gerard Minakawa (New York, New York)

This sculpture features 55' tall curved bamboo columns and an impressive LEF lighting array.
