PRESENTS
TITLE: LIVING LABYRINTH FOR PEACE
ARTIST: SANDRA WASKO-FLOOD
OPENING RECEPTION: Sat December 6th 2008, 6-8pm
CLOSING DATE: Sat January 10th, 2009
This exhibition will be the show you will remember more than any other this year. You’ll see interactive labyrinth with lights, light box wall pieces, innovative prints, photo etchings, monotypes, photos, fabric wall hangings on themes of peace using symbols such as labyrinths, spirals, and cycles. Sandra Wasko-Flood will bring the splendor and gleam, and the exploration of peace within the heart of the universe to Sub-basement Artist Studios here in downtown Baltimore.
 Unlike mazes, with many confusing paths, labyrinths have one path that leads to the center and back. Many people find that the single meandering path slows the breathing focuses the mind and induces a peaceful or meditative state. This experience can make it easier to express feelings and wishes, make decisions, or resolve conflicts: to find your path to inner peace.
Sandra Wasko-Flood, a visionary artist, teacher, and labyrinth builder since 1991, studied art at the University of California Los Angeles, University of Wisconsin Madison, and in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
At the Subbasement Artist Studios, visitors will experience the “Rainbow Labyrinth of Peace,” an interactive installation of computer programmed lights designed to be walked, as well as peace workshops, creativity events, Labyrinth walking, art exhibit and music. Living Labyrinths for Peace, Inc., sponsor of the exhibit, creates labyrinths of art, science, technology and nature, for learning programs that lead the way from inner peace to world peace.
