We are based in Asheville, North Carolina. We’d love to share our labyrinth arts or a labyrinth walk with you!

Golden Spirit Labyrinths

Grand Cayman labyrinth with Granitite Chartres pattern applied on top of the concrete:

Chartres Labyrinth at National Gallery of Grand Cayman.

In order to create a ‘Granitite’ labyrinth, we lay out the Chartres Pattern with masking tape to define where the lines will go.

Next, we apply the Granitite to the lines. After the Granitite has set, we pull up the tape.

After some detailing of the edges of the lines and an application of sealer, we have a labyrinth:

Scored labyrinths are different because they are cut into the concrete. It is the most permanent labyrinth we make. This is a picture of a labyrinth near Salina, Kansas with my family walking:

We make a scored labyrinth by laying out masking tape that shows us where to start and stop cutting the lines.  Each piece of tape in the image below shows where we start or stop cutting.

Caution: Noisy video with sound of diamond blade cutting concrete linked to YouTube! This video shows how we cut the lines of a labyrinth into concrete with a diamond blade and a compass invented by Robert Ferre.

The next image shows me coloring the lines with a black polymer cement. You are right – I am using a paint brush to apply the goopy color.

You can see the inlaid look on the lines of this 12 year old labyrinth. Interestingly, the owners of the labyrinth have not maintained it by re-sealing in all that time. It needs to be re-sealed again in order to dissolve those white lines and restore the original color.
