Statement from Marty Kermeen, Labyrinth Artist
“As a stone sculptor, I specialize in the creation and installation of complex designs, including labyrinths. My mission is to create superior works of art in a variety of paving and landscape materials that withstand the tests of time. It is my belief that hand sculpting enhances the individual character of the rock and leaves the imprint of the stonecutter’s soul. I am passionate about my daily quest to leave a unique mark on this planet for the benefit of all, now and for generations to come.”
