Build a gallery where a block artwork splits apart to reveal a door.

The gallery's most famous artwork hides a passage. One arrow in the right spot and it splits apart.

What you’ll build

Open a gallery with decoy paintings and one block masterpiece that hides a passage. Four sticky pistons hold the artwork, and a hidden target block flips a copper bulb when you hit it with an arrow. Shoot it, and the art splits open.

Finish line: Your gallery's masterpiece splits open with one arrow, and every artwork has its own gallery label.

Bonus challenge: Grow the masterpiece to 2 wide by 3 tall. The middle row is the puzzle: where can those two blocks go?

You’ll need

  • Sticky pistons
  • Art blocks
  • Target block
  • Copper bulb
  • Comparator
  • Bow and arrows

You choose

  • My gallery's name
  • My masterpiece's title
  • Where the secret passage leads

Stuck?

  • Some blocks won't pull back: glazed terracotta stays behind. Test each art block first.
  • Real paintings can't ride on pistons, so build the artwork from blocks.
  • Each hit flips the bulb, so a door that's open closes on the next arrow.
