Interactive Maze to Be Installed in Chiswick Business Park
Watermans commissioned work by Pawel Janicki
The Richmond American University London is in Chiswick Business Park
February 11, 2025
An interactive installation featuring an infinite constantly evolving real-time generated labyrinth is to be opened to the public this week in Chiswick Business Park.
From Wednesday 12 February to Saturday 1 March, a new Watermans/Artcast4D commission by Polish artist Pawel Janicki will be installed at the Richmond American University London.
AAAMaze can be explored by the public, but only a part of the labyrinth is visible at one time, and the invisible parts change constantly, making it impossible to return to a previous location.
Throughout history, labyrinths and mazes have been, central to mythology, psychology, and more recently game design - classic games like Snake (1976) and Pac-Man (1979) highlight their immersive appeal.
Artist Pawel Janicki
It is presented by Watermans Arts Centre as a pilot commission for the EU funded project ArtCast4D with financial support from the Horizon Europe Research and Innovation programme and curated by Klio Krajewska.
Klio Krajewska says, “Pawel Janicki’s AAAMaze presents a playful and entertaining interactive labyrinth experience utilising the AAASeed software.”
The project is a collaboration with The Centre for International Visual Arts and Culture (IVAC) Research Centre at Richmond American University London.
AAAMAZE has received funding from the European Union and the UK Government.
