这个采用了六十年代风格的图形、镜像走廊以及充满怪笑笑声的装置，是为了迷惑那些在迷宫般装置中穿行的人们，设计师Rafael deCárdenas在汽车品牌凯迪拉克（Cadillac）下的曼哈顿城（Lower Manhattan）画廊内部建造的这个装置。

Sixties-style graphics, mirrored hallways and hysterical laughter are intended to confuse those navigating their way through this labyrinthine installation, which designer Rafael de Cárdenas has built inside car brand Cadillac's Lower Manhattan gallery.

Amaze的装置位于凯迪拉克之家的会场中，这是一家奢侈品公司在汽车行业之外举办公共活动的场所，并与纽约艺术刊物Visionaire合作举办。

The Amaze installation is located in Cadillac House – a venue where the luxury company hosts public activities beyond the automotive industry – and was organised in collaboration with New York arts publication Visionaire.

当地的设计师Rafael de Cárdenas设计了四个房间，每个房间都使用不同的方法来让人迷失在其中的空间中，就像一座恐怖的房子。艺术家、作曲家和主唱Sahra Motablebi为适应不同的空间，创作了一个伴音配乐。

Locally based Rafael de Cárdenas designed the set as four rooms, with each using different methods to dazzle and disorientate like a house of horrors. Artist, composer and vocalist Sahra Motablebi has composed an accompanying sound score of voices to suit the different spaces.

“Amaze装置融合了世俗、单调和超级色彩，”团队说。“迷宫式装置的使每个房间都充满生机，与空间里的回声交织在一起，变幻莫测的感觉以及隐藏的门廊，这些门洞微妙地错乱了空间坐标。

首先，在迷宫入口处由金属链帘围绕的圆柱中播放出低沉的声音。

而下一个空间是一个明亮的黄色大厅，里面摆满了镜子，这使它的空间看起来比实际要大得多，并映射出了不存在的空间。英国空间布景设计师Es Devlin和美国艺术家John Miller 同样使用镜子来使参观者迷失在迷宫中。

"Amaze bridges the otherworldly and the mundane, the drab and the hyper-chromatic," said the team. "Each room of the labyrinthine installation stirs with life, woven with uncanny echoes, shifting perceptions, and hidden doorways that subtly scramble the coordinates of space and time."
First up, a low-pitched sound plays in a cylindrical volume surrounded by a metal chain curtain at the maze's entrance.
The next space is a bright yellow hall lined with mirrors, which make it appear to be much larger than it is and suggest spaces that don't exist. British set designer Es Devlin and American artist John Miller have similarly used mirrors to further disorientate visitors to their mazes.

在Rafael de Cárdenas的设计中，伴随着欢声笑语走向走廊的尽头，迎面看到的是一个绿松石颜色的柜子，上面摆放着水仙花和药瓶。

In Rafael de Cárdenas's design, sounds of laughter accompany the walk towards the the far end of the corridor, featuring a turquoise podium topped with a daffodil and a pill packet.

有一个隐蔽的门通向放置黑白艺术品的房间，其中包括图案、线条和漩涡，创造视觉上的幻觉。 Motablebi组成尖锐的声音，以不同的音调和速度与虚幻的图形相互呼应，而在最后的房间里可以听到窃窃私语的声音，感觉自己似乎被人遗忘在这里一样。

A disguised doorway opens onto a room covered in black-and-white artwork, comprising patterns, lines and swirls the create optical illusions. Motablebi composed shrieking noises to play at different pitches and speeds in response to the illusionary graphics, while whispers sound out in the final room suggesting that there people are left behind.

Amaze是2018年的第一个沉浸式体验装置，由Cecilia Dean和James Kaliardos共同创立的Visionaire将为Cadillac House的免费公众活动中制作的一系列沉浸式装置。

Amaze is the first 2018 presentation in an ongoing series of immersive installations that Visionaire, co-founded by Cecilia Dean and James Kaliardos, will produce for the Cadillac House's programme of free public events.

该装置于2018年4月10日向公众开放，并将于2018年6月10日在330 Hudson Street的画廊展示，其中还包括零售空间、咖啡厅和品牌车辆展示区。
