Maze-Lab, solo exhibition.

Ernesto Rios’s twentieth solo exhibition.

RMIT Design Hub. 10 October- 20 November 2014.

Rios was awarded the Siemens–RMIT Fine Art Scholarship Award 2009 for his interactive work Sand-Clock, and has just completed his PhD, which was recognized as the first interactive thesis in E-book format for electronic tablets.

Maze-Lab is made up of intentionally unfinished works to be activated and completed by the public, who ends up being, not only a spectator, but a co-author as well. Maze-Lab contrasts medieval, renaissance and baroque labyrinthine designs with algorithmically-based geometry and optical illusions. Suddenly the outside participant discovers that through search and logics he participates in finding possible mathematical solutions in an exercise that frees him for a while from everyday pressures and stress.
