“Blue building with green markings…” – Labyrinth – Augusta Avenue at Denison Square – Kensington Market – Downtown Toronto

By HiMY SYeD | Published: Monday October 14, 2019

In Greek mythology, Icarus (the Latin spelling, conventionally adopted in English; Ancient Greek: Ἴκαρος, Íkaros, Etruscan: Vikare) is the son of the master craftsman Daedalus, the creator of the Labyrinth.

In Downtown Toronto, Kid Icarus is a Storefront in Kensington Market full of local handmade goods.

I had intentionally chosen to paint this Labyrinth in front of the Kid Icarus Storefront due to the connection with its namesake’s Labyrinth Maker father, Daedalus.
