Labyrinths can be constructed or found in nature\u2014in the folds of the brain, the balancing structures of the inner ear and the paths through which memory, intuition and artistic processes unfold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MITO\u03a3<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Christina Darras presented <em>MITO\u03a3<\/em> (2024), a 103-metre thread-like work made from recycled calico strips, embroidered with red wool yarn and block printed. Its title invokes the Greek word for thread\u2014and the mythic thread that makes it possible to enter a labyrinth and find the way out again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Participating artists were Sandra Bridie, Melanie Cobham, Christina Darras, Spencer Harrison, Aaron Perkins and Daniel J. Pilkington, with sound by Connor Ross. The exhibition was curated by Christina Darras and Daniel J. Pilkington with support from the VCA50 Creative Development Grant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lindenarts.org\/exhibitions\/linden-projects-space\/lab-uh-rinths\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">View the exhibition page at Linden New Art<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Linden Projects Space, Melbourne25 September\u201326 October 2025 Lab\u2026Uh\u2026Rinths brought together six artists to consider the labyrinth as a physical structure, a way of thinking and a metaphor for creative life.
