Floating Maze, Festival der Regionen. 2007, by Peter Sandbichler.
This weeks convergence pairs Peter Sandbichler’s Floating Maze with Smithson’s Spiral Jetty. Smithson’s pile of rocks have been subject to the rise and fall of the Great Salt Lake waters. Only recently has it re-emerged in a walkable state. If Smithson wasn’t so obsessed with the “Mud, salt, crystals, rocks, water” he may have come up with a buoyant solution that was always atop the surface.
