Studies, Mirror Maze

Installed 2016, Copeland Park, Peckham, London, UK

“These cardboard models were the basis for my first art installation, Mirror Maze, which explored memory and identity. The experience began with a short film. As the film concluded, the audience walked through an oval hole and entered a faceted maze.”

—Es Devlin
