Thank you James for including and sharing (my) Vancouver Public Labyrinth in your Winter Sunset photographs from last night.
Grateful to see Labyrinth is still intact and remains walkable.
Went to walk a labyrinth on #solstice and to set an intention for the next 6 months. I forgot how beautiful it is at night. pic.twitter.com/YnnlZ01FJC

Earlier during this Pandemic Year,
My Friend and Brother in Islam, Jeremy, Direct Messaged a photograph of himself standing inside The Centre of Vancouver Public Labyrinth.
Today,
Jeremy messaged me a photograph of the Orange Labyrinth I painted on what I call Labyrinth Pier . . .
My Orange Labyrinth Design is fading in places yet it remains walkable if you look closely and walk mindfully.
Mushrooms sprouting in the Vancouver Public Labyrinth ?
Unexpected !
Sunday Labyrinth Walking in the Vancouver Public Labyrinth . . .
Originally I thought to carve “Vancouver Public Labyrinth” into this same log.
Perhaps “LOVE Everyone” is the message that belonged here all along . . .
“Walked to the Labyrinth,
Walked the Labyrinth and back with @tillie.king today.
This is the farthest I’ve walked in quite some time.
Today was a perfect day for contemplation with the sun playing with the clouds and rain,
The reflections of high tide and the perfect graffiti at the Labyrinth.”
Bicycles stop atop my slowing fading painted Orange Labyrinth on Labyrinth Pier, Vancouver . . .
This Black and White photograph visually reveals three of my four colour painted Labyrinths that make up Labyrinth Pier, Vancouver . . .
Before painting Labyrinths on this Pier overlooking Alder Bay in Vancouver,
I asked as many neighbourhood people as I could,
what regular events happened in this public space ?
Beyond an annual one day community garage sale / swap meet,
nothing happened else was programmed here.
It might be that my painting several Labyrinths here, transforming this pier into Labyrinth Pier, plus the Pandemic shutting down many indoor events, has brought out this Salsa Dance class . . .
In Toronto,
I paint Labyrinths on the surfaces of Wading Pools.
Wading Pools sometimes become velodromes for Tricycles and Bicycles,
as Parents or Grandparents teach their little ones how to ride a bike.
In Vancouver,
I painted Labyrinths onto a Pier overlooking Alder Bay.
Here too on Labyrinth Pier,
Little Ones learn to bike . . .
During the Pandemic,
Many have been waiting for Barber Shops and Hair Salons to re-open.
People need haircuts.
Likewise,
The Vancouver Public Labyrinth has been in need of a Grass Cut.
Today was that day . . .
Grateful to The City of Vancouver / Vancouver Parks Board staff for carefully cutting overgrown grass around the Vancouver Public Labyrinth !
Even though I wasn’t able to walk my Vancouver Public Labyrinth on this Pandemic Summer Solstice,
Grateful to see that at least one Vancouverite did . . .
