Constantly maturing while holding onto our childhood innocence, we as humans carry our past experiences with us into our discovery of the world. This journey is at once exciting and foreboding. Our interpretation of the future through the lens of the past fuses ourselves, but only after destroying the differences between them. Ion exposes our internal child's play and more as it takes our hand through the mazes of an antique hotel, as endlessly winding as the stairways of our minds.
