Oneida teens design labyrinth Dylan Benton compacts stone while building the labyrinth News-Chronicle The Oneida Nation Arts Program, with the assistance of an Wisconsin Art Board Artist & Community Collaborations Grant, has developed a labyrinth as a teen summer apprentice project. The public artwork was created on the grasslands behind the Oneida Cultural Heritage building on Goose Road. Resident artist Robert Possehl and area teens, ranging in age from 13 to 16, designed a maze inspired by the Oneida creation story, history, architecture and art. The base of the labyrinth is a sphere of compacted stone sheeting with layers of purple diamond decorative stone laid in an intertwining path. The purple stone path overlaps and merges cultural symbols representing sky world, the seven generations, long houses, the path of life from birth through old age, and the clans. The legs of bear and wolf overlap and creates working hands. The teens included Joseph Christjohn, Brandon Cornelius, Vanessa Jagodinski, Jacob Moga, Marquita Tebeau, Raymond Denny, Dylan Benton, Jesus Escamea, John Callahan and Ashley Callahan. The project was aided by assistance from community volunteers and several tribal departments.
