One of the artist’s
most exciting pieces,
conceptualized to engage
the local community in the
art. lugufelo’s concept
of a “banded maze”
generates interest on so
many levels. First, the
bands and transparency
of the maze created by
the art is a beautiful,
ever changing visual.
As you move around
the piece, the façade
changes and the art is
interpreted differently.
Next, the ability to
change the artwork’s
giant network of colored
bands could be a way to
spark conversations and
intrigue around the art
at different times of year.
Most importantly, though,
is that the art itself is
interactive – it is meant
to be climbed on, walked
through, and played with.
Once the piece fills with
people, the viewer on
the outside of the work is
challenged to think if the
art is the actual metal and
rubber structure, or if it
is really the sea of colors
created by the movement
of people through the
piece?
