LABYRINTH OF TIME

The intent of the museum is to challenge visitors' conventional perceptions of time and immerse them in an environment where the concept becomes fluid and subjective. By constructing a maze filled with mirrors and illusions, the museum aims to disorient visitors, prompting them to reconsider their understanding of time as a linear, easily measurable construct. The designated "pause points" within the maze serve as opportunities for reflection and contemplation. These devices act as focal points, anchoring visitors amidst the otherwise timeless environment of the maze. Further, this museum would deploy a small Micro museum which talks about Obsolete imagination of time keeping, which is situated within the historic Jantar Mantar in Delhi. The exhibit explores the challenges of timekeeping in earlier eras by showcasing obsolete mediums such as sand, water, sun, candle and pendulum. This micro aims to revive awareness and appreciation for these ancient timekeeping arts in the face of advancing technology.
