Nestled in the thick jungles of San Luis Potosí, Mexico, Edward James discovered the perfect setting for staging his life’s masterpiece - a surrealist labyrinth that unfolds amid waterfalls and ponds—natural and man-made—that prepare the mind for immersion into a dream world. Buildings that evoke nonsense, doors leading nowhere, stairways to the sky and concrete flowers that sprout beside real ones, one man’s dream is realized and reality is displaced by fantasy.
