Gusta mreža kroz koju posjetitelj može proći simbolički sugerira pronalazak puta do cilja, prizivajući dječje igre gumi-gumi u kojima bi se uz brojalice gumene niti saplitale u komplicirane forme iz kojih je potrebno pronaći put ili iznaći rješenje za njihovo rasplitanje. Mreža gumica može se percipirati kao prepreka kretanja ili kao smjernica za kretanje kroz prostor, ovisno o subjektivnoj percepciji promatrača, je li usmjeren na gumice ili na prostor između njih.
A dense network, navigable by the visitors, symbolically suggests a journey towards a goal, evoking childhood games of rubber band jumping. In these games, rubber bands would be tangled into complex forms from which one must find a way out or a solution to unravel the tangle. The rubber band network can be perceived as an obstacle to movement or as a guideline for navigating the space, depending on the viewer's subjective perception, whether they focus on the bands themselves or the spaces in between.
