A garden feature designed to encourage reflection
BY: Melissa Kossler Dutton When Carol Maurer has a lot on her plate, she finds it useful to visit the
labyrinth made of river rocks at the Delaware Art Museum, in Wilmington.
"It quiets my mind," said Maurer, who lives in Hockessin, Del. "It sets the
path for me so I can spiral inward."
Labyrinths, which have been constructed for thousands of years, have become a
popular addition to hospitals, gardens and public institutions.
With a single path in and out, labyrinths are designed to encourage
reflection. They differ from mazes, which are designed as puzzles. Labyrinths
have been associated with religions and cultures throughout the world.
The number of labyrinths in the United States has been steadily increasing
for about 15 years, said Robert Ferre, a labyrinth builder who founded Labyrinth
Enterprises.
"Nowadays they’re so widespread, it’s more about how to best utilize them than what they are,"
