My friend hamish makes large-scale interactive sculptures. His current work is a giant hexagonal labyrinth
(lab´ rinth´) A circular pattern featuring a serpentine but clear path to the center. Labyrinths were set as mosaics into the floors of Gothic cathedrals and represented a symbolic journey to Jerusalem. Pilgrims would walk the labyrinth to the center and back out again in a kind of walking meditation made of cloth, with an organic demon inflatable sculpture at the centre- the course of the labyrinth is nearly half a kilometer! Walking the labyrinth, round and round, is a meditative journey. Direction and orientation are irrelevant, all that matters is the journey.
