“There’s one entrance and one exit and arbitrary milestones in between.” – Labyrinth – Augusta Avenue at Denison Square – Kensington Market – Downtown Toronto

“They say life is a race, but actually it’s a maze.

There’s one entrance and one exit and arbitrary milestones in between.

Some take longer, winding roads and some have straight clear paths.

It’s important to understand that life is incredibly complex like the maze and each one has their own unique journey to take.

We should learn to live with empathy and not compare.”

North end of Augusta Avenue disallows parking on both sides of the street;

Yielding a year-round full-width car-free canvas for my Labyrinths and the people who walk them . . .

“삶은 무엇을 손에 쥐고 있는가가 아니라…” – Labyrinth – Augusta Avenue at Denison Square – Kensington Market – Downtown Toronto

Look closely and you can see the outer lanes of this Labyrinth are incomplete and open.

This image was captured before I finished painting the Labyrinth.

I stepped back out of view of the camera while this photograph was taken.

I almost never see such photos appear online.

Yet, this time I did, as I vaguely remember this moment . . .

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

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.

“Toronto is full of Labyrinths (these ones are in the west end) 🌀🌳…” – Toronto City of Labyrinths

“Toronto is full of Labyrinths (these ones are in the west end) 🌀🌳 and they’ve been a healing tool for me and so many others throughout the world over centuries.

A Labyrinth is a metaphor for spiralling into Self,

It’s a ritual we use in Qoya to help us remember that everything is within.”

“🐶” – Labyrinth – Wading Pool – Randy Padmore Park – Downtown Toronto

This is the 15 Lane quintile ( five section ) Labyrinth I painted in the wading pool in Randy Padmore Park in Downtown Toronto.

I re-imagined the entire process of how I make my Labyrinths, thus allowing me to create 15 Lanes in a space where previously I might only make an 11 Lane design.

I’m very happy with how it turned out.
