Labyrinth

Japanese artist Chiharu Shiota is drawing attention for her monumental installations built from vast webs of thread, which she describes as carrying memories and personal history. The work revisits themes central to her career: absence, loss and the traces people leave behind. Artsy has published a feature examining how the dense red and black labyrinths transform everyday objects into meditations on memory.

Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro is sharing his thoughts on the labyrinth as a primordial symbol whose meaning shifts across cultures. Unlike a maze, he argues, a labyrinth is a constant transit, about finding rather than losing your way. The reflection is drawing attention from film fans and mythology enthusiasts.
