Unlike conventional relief work, Ludo's Labyrinth is not flat. rises physically from its surface, its twenty circular tiers of hand-shaped petals building a true dome that shifts with the light — casting moving shadows across its rings throughout the day.
 
Each tier interlocks with the next, drawing the eye inward through a labyrinthine spiral of burgundy, dusty rose, terracotta, slate blue, and warm cream. The palette is quiet but complex, shifting in tone and temperature as the layers recede toward the center. The effect is both meditative and architectural — organic in its language, precise in its construction.
 
At the heart of the piece, a single 5mm Akoya river pearl provides a luminous focal point — a still center to the composition's sense of motion and depth.
 
One of Jonathan Silverstein's most labor-intensive and structurally ambitious works, Ludo's Labyrinth represents the outer edge of what dimensional paper construction can do — and what it can feel like to stand in front of something that rewards you the longer you look.
