Fifteen Grade 9 Students at Brampton’s Only All-Girls Catholic Secondary School walking my second Proof-of-Concept Chalk Labyrinth.

The width of the Labyrinth outlines were chalked/re-chalked in 3 inch widths, the same width as my go-to size when painting permanent Labyrinths using paint rollers.

This second Labyrinth Candidate Location works.


Because there is ample space on either side of my Nine Lane circular chalk design seen here,

Final design can include additional wing-like lanes afforded by the rectangular asphalt canvas space.

I’ve been approached by the Chaplaincy at Holy Name of Mary Catholic Secondary School in Brampton, Ontario to help them with locating and making a Labyrinth on their high school campus. https://t.co/2kf9Cew7sH pic.twitter.com/T1tf6FhiEW — HïMY SYeD 🍥 City of Labyrinths Project (@LabyrinthsDOTca) October 19, 2021 This seven lane Chalk Labyrinth was my quickly chalked Proof-of-Concept […]

I’ve been approached by the Chaplaincy at Holy Name of Mary Catholic Secondary School in Brampton, Ontario to help them with locating and making a Labyrinth on their high school campus.

This seven lane Chalk Labyrinth was my quickly chalked Proof-of-Concept in one of our candidate spaces,

An asphalt service lane beside their athletic field . . .

Parking Lot seen in the background below is the better candidate location for a Labyrinth painted on asphalt.

Ergo,

A second Proof-of-Concept Chalk Labyrinth is needed to see if the Parking Lot works best.

Noah,

Grateful for your kind, most kind, generous, and unexpected acknowledgement.

Thank you.

“If you’ve ever noticed the intricate beauty of a Labyrinth painted into a splash pad in a Toronto park,

Or even taken a few meditative and reflective minutes to walk its lanes,

You can thank this artist,

HiMY aka @LabyrinthsDOTca

He has made 200 of them across the city,

Unpaid and sometimes without permission.

He takes the time to learn about the people and history of the community so that he can represent them.

He returns to maintain them.

In his words,

They are an “Outstallation” for us each to experience in our own way.

They are a gift for which I am deeply thankful.”

Look closer.

You can see children walking, running, around the Labyrinth I re-painted in the middle of Grange Park in Downtown Toronto.

After the most recent removal of the Grange Park Labyrinth by The City of Toronto,

I decided to experiment to see IF they would remove a much less visible Labyrinth ?

The width of Labyrinth’s lines aree one inch wide, rather than my regular three inches wide.

I made it an almost invisible from a distance by painting a light green colour.

So far, it’s been there, unremoved, being enjoyed, explored, and played in by little ones mid-way into August.

Hopefully it stays this time.
