City of Labyrinths
Toronto & Vancouver City of Labyrinths is a Project to create public labyrinths within walking distance of every Torontonian & Vancouverite.
Labyrinths are placed in parks, public spaces, during neighbourhood street parties or major urban festivals like Pedestrian Sunday Kensington Market in Toronto or Car Free YVR in Vancouver.

Standing in my Labyrinth’s Centre creates a shadow, bringing a Sundial to mind . . .

“Deb walking a rock maze😵” – Vancouver Public Labyrinth – False Creek Seawall
Looking closely at the Centre of the Vancouver Public Labyrinth, it appears the giant dinosaur egg sized stone I placed right in the middle has gone AWOL.
Aw well.
I’d like to replace it once I am back there.
Now I wonder how the experience of arriving at The Centre, the Goal of the Labyrinth, has changed for Vancouver’s Labyrinth Walkers?

Aerial Photo – Labyrinth Pier – Granville Island – False Creek Seawall – Vancouver
WOW!
This is the first aerial image of Labyrinth Pier, Vancouver I’ve seen.
The Orange and White Labyrinths I painted onto the Pier along the False Creek Seawall south east of Granville Island are easily visible.
My Red and Blue painted Labyrinths are almost invisible.
I am so very grateful for this photo!

“An amazing day…” – Labyrinth Pier – Granville Island – False Creek – Vancouver
When morning frost is in the forecast, salt to melt the ice is thrown onto the pier…
Which is what all those specks of white dots are in this image.
It can get slippery sometimes!
Walk carefully!

That’s me in the background holding a box of chalk while wearing my Red Labyrinth T-Shirt.
I was chalking Hearts at the end of the Labryses.

Chalk Labyrinth – Tiny Planet Style – Foot of Manitoba Street – Olympic Village – Vancouver
Four Section pass-through Labyrinth chalked in my usual spot at the foot of Manitoba Street in Olympic Village.
I was satisfied and happy with how it eventually turned out.
There was so much I learned about the process of making Multi-Section Pass-Through Labyrinths that will help inform and improve my future designs.
