Maze artist makes his mark on Sunset Beach

SUNSET BEACH, NC (WWAY) — If the sun is shining and a low tide is expected, you can find the “Mazematician” on Sunset Beach.

Not to be confused with the Maze Man- the Mazematician- is off of the 3rd street walkway.

Aaron Gutknecht says he’s been creating mazes on this beach access since the early 2000’s.

Today’s maze had some beachgoer’s tripped up and asking for assistance on how to get through.

However, feeling “lost” is exactly what Gutknecht hopes for.

“They’re captured by something that’s not normal. It’s not a part of their everyday activities. It takes them out of that real world for a little bit they get to go get lost,” Gutknecht shared.

Since finding out the other existed the Mazematician and the Maze Man have done one collaborative puzzle but have not worked together since.

To stay up to date with the Mazematician’s newest works, you can follow him on Facebook.
