“Rings of Happiness”
Throughout the entire journey through the labyrinth, the viewers were thinking, dreaming, and reflecting on love.
The final point of this emotional and symbolic journey was the moment of encounter with me, during which I placed a ceramic ring on each participant’s finger.
This ring served as a symbolic link — uniting people with one another and with nature. Its material foundation — clay, a piece of the earth — emphasizes the organic connection between humans and the natural world. The ring becomes a metaphor: just as fire hardens and strengthens clay, turning it into a durable and resilient material, so too does love bind and fortify human relationships, transforming their fragility and impermanence into something strong and lasting.

In this way, each participant not only receives an object, but also becomes a bearer of a symbol — a reminder of the power of love to turn what is vulnerable into something stable and profound.
