a new take on mowing
November 12, 2007 by hortstudent
Located at the Ignatius Jesuit Centre in Guelph, this is an outdoor grass labyrinth following the Chartres Cathedral design. There is something very special about the simple landscaping of this labyrinth that regenerates a common grass field into a sacred space. At this time of year, I found myself very aware of my surroundings as I traveled around the path and took in the fall views in all directions. The heart of the labyrinth is enclosed in a circle of tall grasses. A solitary wooden chair awaits at the centre for contemplation before continuing the journey out.
