Description of research project
At this time of Matariki, you are invited to participate in a contemplative walk through the labyrinth, as an opportunity to reflect, write and be inspired. The event is held on 23 and 24 June 2026, at dusk, 5.15pm – 7.00pm, in the grassy area of the plaza by WH Building, Gate 3, Wellesley Street East, at the AUT city campus.
As a participant you are a volunteer, and you agree to contribute to a journal at the centre of the labyrinth. The journal contribution is up to the participant, it may be poetic, a heartfelt comment, a drawing. You allow for photographs and videos to be taken as you participate in the labyrinth encounter, for example, walking inside the labyrinth and writing in the journal. Still photographs and short videos will be taken by the researcher to document the event.
